NFL on ESPN

Football is finally back, and Kevin Clark kicks off the episode by officially locking in his 2026 NFL predictions with division winners, wild-card teams and his Super Bowl pick. After declaring his offseason picks non-binding, Kevin makes it official: Eagles over Bengals in the Super Bowl. Then Kevin is joined by Falcons star Bijan Robinson to discuss his evolution as a running back, why identifying the “free hitter” has become such an important part of his game, what he learned studying Adrian Peterson, and why a dominant running game can completely change the way a defense plays. Bijan also talks about the Falcons, Kevin Stefanski and Tommy Rees, his relationship with Matt Ryan, Atlanta's underrated players and his goals for the upcoming season. Former NFL quarterback Trent Green then joins Kevin to discuss quarterback development in the modern NFL, why young quarterbacks are being pushed onto the field faster than ever, and the difficult-to-measure processing skills that separate successful quarterbacks from everyone else. Green also revisits the 2007 Miami Dolphins, the early days of the Greatest Show on Turf, the famous Chiefs-Colts playoff shootout, and his memories of Priest Holmes. Plus, Trent names his ultimate NFL “bada**” and tells an incredible Brian Waters story from his days in Kansas City. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
