About this episode
The episode discusses lingering questions about the Cowboys, Commanders, and 49ers, focusing on Jayden Daniels' injury and its impact on the Commanders' performance.
In the first installment of Lingering Questions this offseason, we cheated by asking the same question about four then-rookie quarterbacks. Now, we're kicking this thing off for real. We still have questions about the Cowboys, Commanders, and 49ers. Robert Mays and Derrik Klassen ask - and try to answer - those lingering questions in today's episode of The Athletic Football Show.
