How Eagles Built Super Bowl Roster for Long Run | Stan Smith Chats Legendary Adidas Sneaker

The 2025 NFL season has finally arrived as the Eagles defend their Super Bowl title against the Cowboys. ESPN Eagles reporter Tim McManus joins the show to explain how the Eagles have been able to construct a roster full of superstars like Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley by using smart accounting practices, plus their chances of repeating as champions.

Meanwhile, Stan Smith might be known to tennis fans for his wins at Wimbledon and the US Open, but to many, he’s a fashion icon for his famous Adidas shoe that was created back in 1965 and is still a hot commodity today. Smith tells Baker Machado and Derryl Barnes why his sneaker has stood the test of time, how to build a successful brand deal, and his new documentary Who Is Stan Smith? streaming on Hulu and ESPN+.

Plus, FOS reporter Colin Salao has the latest on the Clippers denying accusations in a Pablo Torre report that they circumvented the NBA’s salary cap by paying star forward Kawhi Leonard $28 million for a “no-show job,” and NFL RedZone will officially add commercials to its broadcast.
