The Athletic Football Show: A show about the NFL

We're all thinking about the S. Bowl these days. But while for most of us that means the Super Bowl, for The Athletic's NFL Draft expert Dane Brugler, it means the Senior Bowl. Dane checks in with Nate Tice from Mobile, where he's been attending Senior Bowl practices this week, on this episode of The Athletic Football Show's Prospects to Pros.Follow Nate on Twitter: @Nate_TiceFollow Dane on Twitter: @dpbruglerSubscribe to The Athletic Football Show...AppleSpotifyYouTube Hosted on Acast.

Ben Johnson surprised most the football world on Tuesday by deciding to remain with the Lions as their offensive coordinator for at least one more season.
