Episode Notes

Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy and Rich discuss his return from the shoulder injury that knocked him out for a few weeks to start the season, what he’s learned from future Hall of Famer Travis Kelce, if Kansas City turned a corner with their Week 4 beatdown of the Baltimore Ravens, the challenge of facing Travis Hunter and the stout Jacksonville Jaguars defense on Monday Night Football in Week 5, and more.

NBA on NBC/Sports Illustrated reporter Chris Mannix tells Rich when the Boston Celtics can expect Jayson Tatum to return from his Achilles injury, why there’s so much anxiety surrounding Joel Embiid and the Philadelphia 76ers, why the Los Angeles Clippers/Kawhi Leonard salary cap scandal won’t be going away anytime soon, discusses the Lakers’ LeBron James load management plan, New Orleans Pelicans F Zion Williamson’s newfound fitness regimen, Steve Kerr’s uncertain future coaching the Golden State Warriors, and the brewing discontent between WNBA players and league brass that could lead to “a nasty work stoppage.”

Yankees fan Rich and Red Sox fan Brockman break down the win-or-go-home stakes in their Wild Card Game 3.
