00:00Let's get to some nfl news and notes one of donny's favorite all-time philadelphia eagles calls it a career yesterday
00:07afternoon bg
00:08Brandon graham retires after 15 seasons with the eagles a two-time super bowl champion
00:15Here was bg yesterday addressing his retirement and his lifelong career in philadelphia
00:21Yeah, I know I I gave everything I had everything I had in this
00:27And uh, I don't have no regrets
00:30That's one thing I tell them young boys
00:33Don't have no regrets
00:35and so, uh
00:37First I just want to say, uh 15 years ago
00:41I walked into this city as a young man with dreams
00:44Big dreams a little bit of nervousness and a whole lot of fire in my heart
00:50I had no idea back then when
00:53What this journey would bring?
00:55I didn't know how many times I would be tested. I didn't know how much I would grow
01:00And I surely didn't know how deeply I would fall in love with these fans and the team in this city
01:06It is a rare feat drs bg was a first round pick by the birds out of michigan way back in 2010
01:12He spent all 15 years of his nfl career in one spot with this eagles organization
01:19Watching bg get emotional almost makes me get emotional. I can only imagine your emotions watching that press conference
01:26It brings me back to 1999 the monday after my last football game I played that looked like me up there on the stand
01:31You know thanking the people record-breaking career that I had and how long I got into this didn't have my wife yet
01:36So I really couldn't thank any like girlfriends or anything like that but similar to me
01:40So when I hear these speeches all the time, I go back to my own
01:44Intricacies of me growing up and playing sports sound a lot like me huge accomplishments didn't end in a championship
01:51You know what those fans out there?
01:52They got everything I had man, and they still can remember me on that. How about that?
01:57I mean, listen, I expected you to make that about yourself. I expected you to internalize
02:02I thought it was just going to be your love for brandon graham as a lifelong eagles fan and what he has meant to your
02:07favorite team
02:09Nobody does it like drs anything else on bg before we go to the rest of the nfl headlines
02:15He says he wants to stick around the eagles because you know that love for football
02:18Certainly still burns bright at this point
02:20One of the funniest things about the press conference was they asked him a question right off the bat like are you gonna miss?
02:24The trash talk and he goes look i'm not out there anymore
02:26But when I show up to practice i'll still tell the offensive line what I would have done to them on that play
02:32So, you know, he's gonna be running that mouth left and right with that big smile here
02:35So congratulations bg two times two world champion again 15 years in the nfl not a kicker a snapper or a quarterback
02:41That is incredible man. It really is
02:44Fought his way back from a torn triceps torn biceps to be there with the eagles during super bowl
02:5159 all right drs other news around the nfl. What is aaron rogers going to do the vikings saying this morning?
02:57They are not pursuing aaron rogers. They have fielded some trade calls for j.j. McCarthy. They are not interested
03:03McCarthy is the future in minneapolis. So that would seem likely two spots then for aaron rogers
03:11either pittsburgh
03:12Or the new york giants. Well, here's one of the steelers leaders along that defensive line for a very long time in cameron
03:19Hayward on his not just sports podcast
03:22Yesterday quote I ain't doing that darkness retreat
03:26I don't need any of that crap either. You want to be a pittsburgh stealer or you don't it's that simple
03:32That's the pitch the end of the quote doesn't seem as though hayward is all that interested
03:37And having the drama that seems to follow aaron rogers
03:40Or anybody else because nobody wants to be a pittsburgh stealer's quarterback at this point right now
03:44And that's pretty much on point. So I don't know what he's yelling and screaming about but understand this too
03:49it's it's hard for the stealers to understand like
03:52He talking about aaron rogers was waiting on minnesota and probably would have waited weeks and weeks and weeks
03:56Which means like okay, he's not going there and the steel's like, oh, I hope he comes here
03:59It's like does he really even want to be on your football team?
04:02so I understand where cam hayward's coming from but it's not as if like
04:05We had a chance to get six quarterbacks and we waited on aaron rogers and look how it turned like no
04:10Nobody went like justin fields was begging or excuse me. They were begging him to come back
04:14He's like hey i'm going to the jets this place stinks in here
04:16So be careful what you wish for at this point
04:18But also where aaron rogers really didn't want to go there how excited is he is to actually go there now?
04:24That's the interesting point
04:26He's still holding everybody up just signed. Yes
04:29You like football jaylen millrow having dinner last night with the stealers top brass pittsburgh draft
04:3521st overall in the opening round would the former alabama qb be in consideration?
04:41I don't think that would be very wise matt. Milano restructuring his contract to stay in buffalo a very optimistic off season
04:48For the bills in western, new york
