Terrible Podcast - Episode 852




Steelers Podcast - The Terrible Podcast show

Summary: Season 7, Episode 85 of The Terrible Podcast is now up and in this Friday show, Alex Kozora sits in for David Todd once again and we start this episode off by remembering Alan Gifford, a friend of mine and longtime listener of the show who passed away recently. After remembering Alan, we move on to talk about the busy week the Pittsburgh Steelers have had that included them signing wide receiver Antonio Brown to a contract extension and placing the franchise tag on running back Le’Veon Bell. We briefly talk about if Bell will have an extension done prior to the 2017 NFL Draft and how much he’ll likely be paid during the first three years if a deal is indeed consummated. The Steelers also re-signed linebacker James Harrison and tendered offensive lineman Chris Hubbard this past week so Alex and I dedicate some time to talking about those two transactions. Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert addressed the media on Wednesday at the NFL scouting combine so Alex and I discuss a few of the talking points coming out of that as well. We talk about the Steelers reportedly having interest in cornerback Darrelle Revis and quarterback Mike Glennon to close out the first part of this episode. With the combine now underway in Indianapolis, Alex and I talk about a few things we look forward to seeing over the course of the next several days. We also talk about one specific drill we both plan on watching carefully. Additionally, Alex and I go over the few players the Steelers have reportedly met with so far at the combine. As always, several other smaller talking points are mixed in throughout the show that are not highlighted here in this post.
