    Phil Simms was a CBS football analyst for 26 years, but recently learned that his contract won’t be renewed. He joins the show with his son Matt to discuss the changing face of NFL media, why he expected his exit was coming, and why the Atlanta Falcons made the perplexing move to acquire two starting quarterbacks.

    Plus, the Kentucky Derby broke betting records, there is turmoil at Red Bull despite its on-track dominance, and Ipswich Town and Leicester City are returning to the Premier League.
