Nightcap Hour 2: Colts & Patriots TIE in Preseason Opener + Chargers SMACK Texans + Jayden Daniels’ PETTY MOVE to LSU + Shedeur Sanders APOLOGIZES to Media + Browns Name Watson STARTER in FIRST Preseason Game

13:55Shannon Sharpe:Yeah.

13:56Joe Johnson:That's another thing. You got to be real confident, not only in your hands, but not really have a care of what's around you, because you finna get hit, Joe. Yeah. What a boy trying to knock your head off out there, man, especially in the preseason. They trying to make the team.

14:09Shannon Sharpe:You should play another position. Damn. You don't want to get hit. You don't need to play wide receiver. You should have been a DB so you can do the hitting.

14:16Joe Johnson:You have to almost, Joe, in a sense, you have to almost not really care.

14:21Shannon Sharpe:Oh, you can't.

14:22Joe Johnson:Play a plan receiver, man, anything inside that middle, man, you just got to plug that thing out there, man, and just brace for contact.

14:30Shannon Sharpe:Because I see cats sometimes when they come across that middle, they catch it, and they going to get down real quick. Yeah, for sure. I ain't taking no unnecessary contact, especially when I know I can't go anywhere. I'm just going to take a big hit for what? But you have to understand, sometimes you got to know when the journey's over. Sometimes you got to know, it's like, you know what? I might can split this. Because the angle in which he's coming, I think it's going to be a glancing blow. I might be able to get him out of here. I mean, you play so long, and you know who's trying to tackle you, and you know how he comes up.

15:06Shannon Sharpe:Man, he comes up reckless. He ain't putting no arms on nobody. He's just trying to put pads on somebody and trying to get a big hit. So you brace for it, you know, you shield and take off going. But you have to understand, I mean, there are going to be some plays like, yeah, they about to do something bad to me. Let me go. Hey, Joe.

15:26Joe Johnson:I was going to say, Uncle Joe, I had got so good at it, Joe, running anything like bang eights, dig routes in the middle of the field, Joe. When the ball was coming, I had got so good with avoiding contact, Joe. if I'm, let's say I'm running like a 16-yard in route, right? If the ball is coming, I ain't got so good at falling away, falling away from the defenders. So the ball coming to me, but I'm going back to the ball, and I let the ball cross my face and catch it falling backwards. So you can't hit me. It's weird. I gotta show you some of them clips, Unc. It's crazy.

16:02Shannon Sharpe:You catch the ball against side. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

16:06Joe Johnson:Just like that. Let him touch me down. Man, I'm to my head, dude. Frustrated as hell.

16:11Shannon Sharpe:Nah, you ain't gonna get no big head on me.

16:13Joe Johnson:Oh, no. Hey, hey, hey, hey. Because you know Ocho been talking all damn week. They can't wait to put fire on you. All week, Joe. Now, you not hitting me clean. I don't care. It's not happening. You scared?

16:22Shannon Sharpe:You scared? You ain't getting no big head? I ain't scared. But I ain't no damn fool either, though. At all. But look, this is Anthony Richardson's audition, potentially, for somebody else.

16:38Joe Johnson:Yeah. You don't think you're going to make it? Uh-uh.

16:45Shannon Sharpe:Oh, tonight's game didn't really help his call. The question is, Ocho, what the question is, I'm keeping him for what? Do I believe he'll be better somewhere else? Yes. That's just me personally.

16:57Joe Johnson:You need to change the scenery in general.

16:59Shannon Sharpe:Yes. Yeah. And then the question is, and Riley Leonard, they really like him. They really like him. He was at Notre Dame. I just think it's best if Rich goes somewhere else and try to start all over again. Maybe. Maybe. I mean, the explosive talent, Ocho, it's obvious. You know what I mean? I don't think you can really question that, but his decision-making is still questionable when you watch him play. and you know you I don't know man I don't know I think when you get too many opportunities especially in professional sports bro hey ain't too many teams gonna keep handing you these opportunities no no no

17:49Joe Johnson:especially not at that position Joe not that position not other positions we give you a little leash we give you a little leeway at that position as important as it is your lease your lease is very short

18:05Shannon Sharpe:especially if they think you're lazy if they think you're not prepared because the word travel the word get around those coaches talk those general managers talk and you know he's phenomenal he's a phenomenal kid but he's just and sometimes he just needs to go somewhere it'll be a wake up call the fourth pick in the draft going into his fourth year and he's on another team Well, the thing is, when these other teams call Uncle Ojo, I mean, what are the coach going to say about him? You know what I mean? Like, you know, you hope that they will say something great about him, something good about him, but.

18:47Shannon Sharpe:You lying. You lying. Because if what you're telling me is good, why Daniel Jones starting? Why you go give a guy$40 million a year if what you said about him is true? Why you even go get Dan Jones to begin with? So I'm not going to believe anything that you say, especially if you can say he's a good kid, he doesn't cause any problems, he just got up to the wrong start here. And the thing is that he had a game early and he played pretty well. And he's talking about the NFL is easier than college. I'm like, boy, you out your damn mind. I understand you went to Florida and the SEC that says the closest thing to the NFL, but it ain't the NFL.

19:30Shannon Sharpe:But there are a lot of guys from the SEC going to get cut in that final cut, Joe. He got caught up in the moment. He ain't really mean that. You go back and ask him, he ain't mean that. He got caught in the moment. And then guys, because then my guys going to go out of their way to try to show, oh, you think the NFL easy. You think this thing's sweet over here, huh? That's the last thing you want. Oh, you think you're drinking Chick-fil-A lemonade. Okay. Okay. We're about to show you just what's going on. But I think he'd be better served going somewhere else, starting over again. Sometimes start over.

20:05Shannon Sharpe:You know, sometimes you can be in a relationship, Ocho, you can be in a marriage. And it just didn't, this one just didn't work. And then you go get you another girl, you go get you another guy, you go get in another relationship, then I'd be damned.

20:19Joe Johnson:Yeah, and it take off. Yeah, it happens like that. It happens like that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I wish Youngboy nothing but the best, though. I wish him nothing but the best. Yeah, for sure, for sure. We've been through a lot, man, having to deal with adversity and scrutiny. And obviously, to his own right, based on his own doings, I think he just needs a fresh start.

20:40Shannon Sharpe:And sometimes when you end up in that relationship, fails in one situation, you work a little harder. You look at someone like, man, you know what? And I can't be hanging with you. Hey, fellas, man, I can't be hanging with y 'all like I used to, man. And it's shh. Man, y 'all done cost your boy two relationships. I'm out here talking about hanging with the fellas. Joe, I'm out here hanging with the fellas and everything. Y 'all ladies might let y 'all hang like that. Yeah. My old girl, she ain't, you know, hey, damn. Yeah, hey, experience the best teacher, bro. You got to go through all these relationships, and then you learn.

21:18Shannon Sharpe:You be like, damn, I messed up in this one. Okay, I ain't going to do that in this relationship. I ain't going to do that. And before you know it, like, damn, I ain't going to do that. I ain't going to do that. I damn sure can't do this. Man, you got a whole – hey, by the time you've been there, you got a Cheesecake Factory menu and stuff that you can't do in a relationship. Man, y 'all know Cheesecake got that big-ass menu? They got about 15 – they got a thousand things on that damn menu. You know, it's funny you say that because we just went there – me and the fair just went there about a week ago.

21:49Shannon Sharpe:It's so much on the menu. hell you don't know what the damn yes but y 'all need to take some of this stuff off oh man damn

Hey, look, and the kid, hey, before we even sit down and eat, Ocho, look, the kid's leaning on the glass, on the cheesecake glass like that. Woo, I'm trying to see. Yeah. Damn, we even ate yet. Yeah, y 'all.

22:35Shannon Sharpe:Nah, man, Joe, I hadn't been to the Cheesecake Factory, man. Cut a line, it's always busy. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And you know what's gotten busy like that, Joe? Houston's.

My grandfather had eel skin all the way up his arm. It worked with arthritis for me? I don't know, man. It's bad. He heard it. Somebody said that. I don't know if it worked or not, but he did. Oh, man. Oh, man. Man, y 'all know how them old people live. They had all them old remedies and stuff.

33:00Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, I mean, hey, hey, Ocho.

33:02Joe Johnson:Yeah.

33:03Shannon Sharpe:Joby done pulled that thing out with his teeth. What?

33:13Shannon Sharpe:Hey, listen. Listen, y 'all out of control tonight. He tried to fool us. Ocho, he tried to fool us. He tried to fool us. I know the more country, boy. The more country.

33:21Joe Johnson:Hey, he tried to act like he really don't like nothing, None of my ideas, man, come on, man.

33:26Shannon Sharpe:Hey, Chad, y 'all see they trying to pull the wool over my eyes, but we know what's going on now. We know what's going on. Hey, that ain't me, that's Ocho. Nah, it's you, hell, it's you talking about me, it's Ocho, it's you too. Nah, it wasn't me. Yeah, it's both of you. Nah, it wasn't me, I just. Y 'all ain't, watch y 'all the live show, y 'all show up with the mask on. Oh, hey, the live show,

33:49Joe Johnson:you know what I got for the live show too, nah. What you got? You got a new outfit? Nah, I'm gonna be clean now. But you know, I got that Anderson pack wig. Oh man, yeah. Yeah, nice little barb. Nice little barb, you know. You gonna rock that? Yeah, I'm gonna come out of that thing like David Banner did. You see how David Banner came out? I seen, I seen David.

34:12Shannon Sharpe:Hey. Hey, get that what you call, get you some what you call them. What? Some Bruno Mars, some sideburns, Ocho.

34:18Joe Johnson:Yeah, yeah, yeah. That bar with them sideburns?

34:22Shannon Sharpe:with bell bottoms and some boots yeah guys you remember uh uh uh laurence fishburne yeah with that and what you call him with ike turner i'm with you when you're right oh yeah he wasn't playing no game neither the chargers beat the texas 27-7 trey lance uh i mean you know what he has flashes where you like damn yep trey you like that and then he just

34:49Joe Johnson:like just go off the rails and that that's always been the problem with trey lance consistency and that the one position uncle joe where you need consistency for your team to have success is that the quarterback position you're gonna make mistakes yes it's gonna happen but the mistakes that he makes they're costly yeah they're costly and obviously tonight he had flashes like unc said but he just got to be a little bit more consistent

35:14Shannon Sharpe:that's the uh that's the only thing though uh oh that's been his problem for whatever reason 49ers and he was in Dallas for a minute and then the Chargers because he's been in the Chargers for the last couple of years yeah but you're hoping that Justin Herbert can stay healthy but if something were to happen he goes down for a game or two you'd like to be able to come in and be able to like okay because I know I know Harv's like him because Harv's looking at he reminds me of Colin Kaepernick. And he rode Colin Kaepernick in an outstanding defense all the way to the Super Bowl. Came up a little short against the Ravens.

35:49Shannon Sharpe:But hey, so we know Harbs likes that type of quarterback. He likes a quarterback that has legs. You look at the success that he had with Alex Smith. You look at the success. If you go back and look and study Harbs, what could J.J. McCarthy do? He could run the football. He could run it. And that's the type of quarterback and we see Justin Herbert is a lot more athletic than people previously gave him credit for. Because I didn't really realize he was that athletic until I saw his ass in the Rose Bowl and watched him get – I was like, well, damn. That boy got some wheels on him, man. Yeah, he can run.

36:23Shannon Sharpe:He can move. Yeah, for sure. But Trey Lance, you got to do a better job taking care of the football. Got sacked twice. He just – turnover just gets you beat. That's just like, Joe, you know this in basketball. You turn the ball over, you're going to get your ass. And that's what, you know, the Spurs cost them every time. They started turning the ball over. But baseball, you commit errors. You turn the ball over. You asking for a team to whip your ass. Yeah, yeah.

36:51Shannon Sharpe:When you're moving like I do, trips don't always come together weeks in advance. Sometimes production shoots, interviews, or something I've got to travel for on a short notice. Like the time when I had the last minute trip to Denver and everything came together fast. Once it was locked in, I had to be ready to go. That's where Amazon Prime can make a difference.

On the day I decided to enroll in the nursing program at Rasmussen University because afternoon, my 35th birthday, I was hanging out with a friend And they had just questioned me what I was going to do with this next chapter of my life.

39:33I immediately had said, I want to go to nursing school. So I actually had contact information from an advisor at Rasmussen, contacted her, and actually ended up starting like three weeks later.

40:15Shannon Sharpe:Warning, this product is not a safe alternative to cigarettes. Jane Daniels' attorney has informed LSU that it can no longer use his name, image, and likeness in a cease and desist letter. The issue stems from LSU allowing cornerback DJ Pickett to wear the number five, the same jersey number Jay Daniels wore when he won the Heisman Trophy at LSU. In a statement, the Daniels family is deeply disappointed and feels profoundly disrespected by LSU's decision to give Jay's number to another player. Jaden and his family had every reason to believe the number would remain meaningful, part of LSU's legacy, and would be honored and protected in recognition of his extraordinary contributions to the university.

40:58Shannon Sharpe:Ocho? Yes. What's going on here?

41:00Joe Johnson:I mean, I kind of see it, Uncle Joe, my understanding. I think maybe how many players have won the Heisman Trophy at LSU, if I'm not mistaken? Three players have won.

41:10Shannon Sharpe:Billy Cannon, the Galloping Ghost.

41:12Joe Johnson:Yes. Joe Burrow, 2019. team and then jay daniels daniels i've obviously with those three um image name and likeness uh it it should be restored based on what he's done the great historically you know for that i mean for that entity in general you would think you know um the number would be retired but in in a sense i hope that everything gets resolved in in a what's the word i'm looking for in a respectful manner because I think at some point maybe they are going to retire it but I'm not sure where they would allow someone to wear that five. I'm not sure why they would allow someone to wear that five.

41:52Joe Johnson:It makes no sense to me. And the person that is wearing it I'm not sure what his name is but now he has big shoes to fill. Even one of the following the footsteps of what Jayden Daniels has already done. He said he

42:07Shannon Sharpe:was promised that number Ocho. He said they told him if he comes there they would give him that number.

42:15Joe Johnson:So they use it as a ploy to get a player to come there.

42:18Shannon Sharpe:Hold on.

42:19Joe Johnson:But didn't he play there last year

42:21Shannon Sharpe:Uncle Ocho? Yep. He wore three though. Yep. But he said he wanted that number. And a new coach came in. But you got to realize. Hold on. Brian Kelly. He recruited him. Got him from Arizona State. Brian Kelly gave him his word. And so So when Lane Kempe came in, he told, guess he told Lane, they promised me this number. Lane like, okay, you can have a number.

42:50Joe Johnson:But as a player, understanding the significance of the five and with the person that wore the five and went in the Heisman and what that means, if anything, if I'm Jayden Daniels, I understand. I understand, but I would rather the school respectfully want to honor and retiring my jersey instead of me having to send a cease and desist. If I'm LSU, I mean, out of respect for the legend and what he did and what he accomplished during his short tenure there at LSU, I would have retired it. I don't like the fact that people are comparing Joe Burrow and Jaden Daniels and the stats. Forget all that comparison stuff.

43:30Joe Johnson:He won a high school. Joe Burrow won a high school and a natty.

43:35Shannon Sharpe:Joe, you got your high school number retired, right? Yeah, my high school number retired. Me and my brother had our high school number retired. And we don't have a high school anymore, so we ain't got to worry about nobody from Glenville wearing number three. But I got my college number retired, Savannah State. And they only retired it. I left Savannah State in 19 – I played my last game in November of 1989. They ended up retiring the number 20 years later, but nobody wore the number. Yeah. Mackey, who's the equipment manager, and Coach Davis, Coach Friend, he's like, ain't nobody wearing this.

44:11Shannon Sharpe:He's saying, can't nobody feel this jersey. And they never ordered a number two. So at the time, the president's like, this number is officially retired. You can un-retire it. You want me to do that. And I told you, a guy hit me on social media. He told me, man, I want to wear the number two. I said, not in Savannah State, you don't. You can wear it somewhere else, but you ain't wear it there. But me, somebody like, I wouldn't even think about going to Florida State wearing number two. That's time's number. What I look like wearing that number? Right. Or if I, you go and some of these things, I wouldn't, me personally, that's just me.

45:00Shannon Sharpe:I want my own number. Yeah. I'm on my own. I'm the same way.

45:05Joe Johnson:When people see that five, that LSU jersey, they think Jaden Daniels in general.

45:12Shannon Sharpe:Because you know what they normally do, Ocho? Them Hellraisers normally get number seven. Honey Badger. Yeah. Pat P. Yeah. I think Moe Claiborne. Maurice Claiborne. Moe Claiborne.

45:25Joe Johnson:Mm-hmm.

45:25Shannon Sharpe:I think though Leonard Fournette. They normally get number seven. Yeah. And rock out.

45:31Joe Johnson:Hey, is Young Bull that good though?

45:33Shannon Sharpe:I don't start me to lie, Joe. I don't know anything about him. Hey, Chad.

45:36Joe Johnson:Chad, young bull that's wearing number five. Is he got to be? You got to be that boy. You got to be that boy.

45:43Shannon Sharpe:Considering they promised him. Yeah, he must be. He must be. Now, Joe, before you go, I'll give you another example. Normally what happens if a number is retired, the institution will go. The number four is retired at Clemson. Steve Fuller. They wouldn't ask him because that's Deshaun. That's the number he wanted to wear. They asked him. Deshaun asked. The university asked, if I'm not mistaken. He said yes. Deshaun wore it. They put it back up. When Peyton went to Denver, 18, was retired. Frank Shapuca. He asked the family. the family said we'd be honored for you to wear the number. Peyton wore it, put it back up.

46:39Shannon Sharpe:So that's normally, but the thing was, the number is not retired. It just hasn't been given out since Jaden had left. And I guess Jaden was under the assumption no one was going to wear that number. That's what I don't know. I hadn't talked to J.D., and I hadn't talked to his mom, Ms. Jackson. So I don't know.

47:05Shannon Sharpe:But it seems like something got lost in communication, guys. Go ahead, Joe. When you think about it, these schools, they own these numbers, though. They just don't own the damn players. And I think that's the misconception that's being taken from this. I think Jaden Daniels has had a hell of a college career. I don't like this move, though. I didn't think it was a smart PR move, bro. No, no. Oh, it made a look bad, yeah. It does. It makes you look very petty, and it's set up to where, because how we view sports nowadays, for everybody to take shots at him now. So now when season starts, his ass got to come out and ball out, because they're going to be on him.

47:48Right.

47:49Joe Johnson:You know what I mean? You know what, too, Uncle Joe?

47:52Shannon Sharpe:Where that?

47:53Joe Johnson:Young Bull. Nah, I'm reading the chat. The chat say he's like that. 6 '4", defensive back, 4 '5". How tall is he? Damn. 6-4. A corner? Yeah, he played corner. Damn! Yeah, so I'm... Listen, I don't watch much college football. Obviously, when it's time for us to watch it, I'll be tuning. Now you're wearing the 5. You got my attention. Now I want to see you play. And the rest of the world will be watching as well because of the uproar of you wearing the 5. And, I mean, I don't know what the real issue is. You know? I mean, some people say hey it's money some people say it's about respecting your time retiring number based on what jayden daniels did hey i i i have no idea i'm just giving my opinion yeah i mean like i said

48:41Shannon Sharpe:i think the thing is is that because like joe i agree with you people like bro you and you in

48:46Joe Johnson:washington why you worried about a college number that's how that's how people gonna take it but

48:51Shannon Sharpe:he's like man i put bled i i i i made the number five famous at lsu yeah just like joe made the number nine. Like I said, I don't know. I don't know. I was very fortunate enough that Savannah State thought enough of me to retire the number two and thought that, hey, nobody else should wear that number based on the way I played and the way I conducted myself. Joe said he ain't taking his number down. He ain't giving his number. His son. In high school, when I went to the Little Rock Central, they didn't have a number 24 at the time. I've been wearing number 24 since I was yay high. So I was like, man, y 'all got that two-folder.

49:34Shannon Sharpe:I'm coming. You know what I mean? So they went and got the jersey actually made. For me, it's very sentimental to me, bro. When I go in that gym, when I go in that high school gym, I go back home and I see that up there like, yeah, that's a proud moment for me, bro. But I think what's being misled about Jaden Daniels, he didn't ask for his jersey to be retired. He just said you can't use his name, image, and likeness. Right. You know what I mean? I think that's the biggest misconception because everybody thinks that he's talking about, man, I want my jersey to retire. I'm sure he probably does.

50:07Shannon Sharpe:But he just said, man, y 'all can't use my name, image, and likeness no more. Right. Right. But I'm saying, but that's in reference to somebody else wearing the number five. Yeah. He wanted to be the last player to wear the number five. Yeah. And I get it. I mean, look, you win the Heisman Trophy. That's the who's who. hello yeah that is the most that is that's probably the most that's one of the most recognizable trophies in all of sports i agree definitely in north america not obviously you know we know the lombardi but when you talk about you know and we know uh the stanley cup and things like that but it's more recognizable than the world series trophy or the larry o 'brien trophy It is.

50:47Shannon Sharpe:It just is. Right. And not to say, or what is the regular season MVP? I mean, it's more recognizable than the MVP trophy in football, basketball, baseball. Hey, everybody know that. Yeah. With that leg up. Yeah.

51:13Shannon Sharpe:But I agree with you. I would have just tried to handle this behind the scenes. It's like, guys, I thought we had an understanding that no one was going to wear the number five. But they promised it. They promised the kid that. Brian Kelly, Brian Kelly like, nah, you ain't getting this one. Yeah, Lane Kiffin just got the head. He ain't studying that. Man, what y 'all talking about? Hey, Lane Kiffin tried to make everybody happy because he knows he needs to win. He's got to win. Absolutely. He's got to win. And they spent a boatload of money to get those players. They got the number one tackle in the portal from Colorado.

51:49Shannon Sharpe:They tried to keep – hey, they spent a boatload of money, and when you spent a boatload of money and you promised – and they said, like, you promised me that number. I sure hope don't nobody promised number two at Savannah State. Hey, hey, Lane Kiffin say, hey, I ain't coach Jaden Daniels here. I'm going to promise this kid.

52:08Joe Johnson:Basically, Joe, that's what he's saying. Hey, the funny thing about it, too, is with that move from Ole Miss coming to LSU, Lane Kiffin has to do everything in his power to make sure he wins. No matter what. Yes. And if he's giving a four or five star the number five to make sure he can get that player.

52:26Shannon Sharpe:Hello.

52:27Joe Johnson:Hey, it is what it is.

52:29Shannon Sharpe:Hey, hey, hey, hey. Hell, if I'm a head coach on the ultra, I'm going to run for some fellas, too. Hell, hey, I'm making promises and everything to get you to come over here to my school. For sure. But see, the thing was is that he's looking at it like, okay, the previous coaching staff promised that. Lane didn't promise that, and the previous coaching staff didn't let him get the number, so why all of a sudden you feel so obligated for a promise that you didn't make? Right.

52:58Shannon Sharpe:But hey, some people feel strongly about a number, Dan. They really do. Some people feel like that's their superpower. Yeah, especially if you've been wearing it from like elementary, junior high. Yeah. It has some sentimental value to it. It definitely does. Man, look, I had a bunch of numbers. I played a bunch of positions. Man, I played offensive line. I had a 54. I was 54, 22, 80. I was 19. Then I got three. That's why I wore number two when I got to the league because you couldn't get 24. Especially if you get drafted by Boston Hill, you're going to be in the 30s or 40s or 50s. You didn't get it.

53:42Shannon Sharpe:You get 77. You get the Luka number. You got to wear 55. You know what I mean? But when I got traded to Phoenix, Tom Gugliotta wore number 24, Uncle Ocho. I know Tom Gugliotta. I do. NC State. I wasn't even going to ask him for that damn number. I said, man, you know what? I'm just going to take the little two right here and get on down. I ain't going to even mess with him. Yeah. I was rocking two from Phoenix to Atlanta. Atlanta. I gave it up when I went to Brooklyn. I wanted to try something different. Yes. I mean, hey, I wanted, look, I was 84. Once Ricky Nat left Denver, and I went to that man, I said, hey, I said, Coach Reed, can I get 84?

54:29Shannon Sharpe:I said, because, you know, my brother was 84, and, you know, I don't really like 81. I said, I ain't really. He's like, oh, no problem. Just go down there and tell Ronnie them to give it to you. Man, I said, hey, Coach Reed said I can have number 84. Now, if you change numbers, Joe, you got to buy all the numbers out. You got to buy them all. You got to pay a grip, don't you? Unless you put it in advance. Like, if you put, like, okay, starting in 27, I'm going to change my number. That way they don't print anymore. Right. Hold on, though. So what did Shadur have to do? Because he was 12 last year.

55:04Shannon Sharpe:He had to buy all them 12s? Unless he told them. In advance? In advance. If he says in 2026, I'm going to change to number two, no problem.

55:18Joe Johnson:And you see he was the highest selling jersey too. Yep. Yeah.

55:22Shannon Sharpe:Highest selling jersey. But yeah, this is, I mean, and I agree with you guys. I think it paints Jane as petty and concerned about a college number when he's in the NFL. He's about to make a boatload of money because I believe he's going to stay healthy and have an outstanding year and going to be making$250, $300 million. That's going to be an afterthought. Yeah. I mean, I remember the first time I saw somebody in my 84 in the Broncos. I was like, damn, y 'all didn't even let me get gone. Damn.

56:00Shannon Sharpe:I was like hold on I figured like me I look at it like and I can see like like the Bears like the Bears and the Giants and the Packers they got like 20 something guys retired if you retired all those numbers you gotta have guys out there with triple digits you gonna be like college you know you see a guy with two on offense and a two on defense or you know something like you know a one and a one I get it like that but I was like some of these teams He's like, I was like, man, I was like, it ain't nobody, but let's see. Me, it's like John, Zim, myself, Atwater, TD, Gratishar, Floyd Little. I said, we ain't got but seven.

56:43Shannon Sharpe:Y 'all can put them up. Well, Floyd and John's up. Floyd and John's up. But I was like, I remember I was like, is he not even? I'm like, he got my number. He ain't even like that. Man, y 'all going to run out of numbers here. Y 'all say y 'all got 80, 90-something people on the team? What's the likelihood of one of them guys that get number 65? Get Zim number, get Floyd. Well, Floyd and John, 44 and 40, they got a couple of them. 44, 7, 18. I think now those are the only ones that are retired. Boy, they got seven numbers, Joe. That's seven. But, I mean, if you make the hall. Yeah, I get you. Because you got to think about it.

57:32Shannon Sharpe:It's less than 400 people. Yeah. In that building. Very prestige. Very, very, very. But I get it. Look, I understand it. As somebody, Joe, you know this. You have your number. I mean, if you go back to Little Rock Central and somebody wearing that 24, you going to like, hold on. Whoa, what's really going on? I'm going to say somebody took it out the damn rafters. Yeah, how did they get their ass way up there?

58:08Shannon Sharpe:The last 10 Heisman Trophy jersey winners. Fernando Mendoza won the next year. So I guess somebody has his. Retired number, Travis Hunter. Jayden Daniels. retired, worn on defense, retired. Bryce Young, worn two years after. Devontae Smith, worn, uh, next year after. Joe Burrow, not worn. Kyler Murray, worn the next year. Baker Mayfield, worn four years after. Lamar Jackson, worn, uh, the next year. Tim Tebow gave up 15 for Anthony Richardson. Oh, he let Anthony Richardson win 15? Cause he wanted to be AR 15. Fire and blanks. Pow! Hey, you got to chill, bro. You got to chill. But I'm surprised considering, think about it, Caleb Williams.

59:00Shannon Sharpe:Oh, he went to you. For Caleb Williams to get, because think about it, all those Heisman Trophy winners they got at USC. USC, who we are? Mike Garrett, OJ Simpson, Charles White, Marcus Allen, Reggie Bush, Matt Liner, Carson Palmer. Mm-hmm.

59:21Shannon Sharpe:they got seven of them I don't know what Louisville waiting on Oklahoma got a bunch of Heisman Trophy winners also yeah Jason White, Billy Sims I think Steve Owens won the Heisman Sam Bradford Kyler Murray, Baker Mayfield they can't retire all of them, huh? Hold on, didn't Hurts win it? He got 52nd. Oh, did he?

59:56Damn. Damn.

1:00:00Shannon Sharpe:Alabama had four guys to win it. Mark Ingram, the second, he won it first. And then Derrick Henry and then Devontae and then Bryce Young. Hey, we just ain't never heard nobody come out publicly and say, speak how Jaden Daniels. Because I'm sure some of them dudes probably feel the same damn way Jaden Daniels feel. Oh, for sure. Yeah. For sure. Oh, that's crazy. I'm trying to think, yeah. And Caleb Weaves. So you figure all those. They got like seven or eight, LSU. I mean, Ohio. I think USC has the most. I think they got eight. And then Ohio State and USC got seven, I think. No. No, Ohio State and Oklahoma, I think they're tied with seven.

1:00:50Joe Johnson:Reggie Bush, five, retired?

1:00:52Shannon Sharpe:I think so, yeah. Because remember, they gave him his trophy back. Yeah. Because they wanted like Carson won it, and then Jason White won it, and then Matt and Reggie won it right after that. And then Troy Smith won it from Ohio State after that. I mean, I ain't going to do the trivia with y 'all and go down from Saturday all the way through the Heisman Trophy with him. But y 'all know. Y 'all know. But, yeah, I agree with you, Joe. I think there are a lot of guys that won that award. I mean, if you win that award, that should be a no-brainer. Put that man left for the rafters. Don't know about you wearing that jersey.

1:01:34Shannon Sharpe:Louisville, what y 'all doing? I know y 'all had Johnny Unitas. And Johnny Unitas is great. but Lamar Jackson college that boy was special I don't know if y 'all noticed and held the year that he didn't win it the year because Baker won it after he did y 'all better go check his numbers his number was better the second time than it was the first time yeah

1:05:30Shannon Sharpe:Questions about his quarterback competition with Deshaun Watson declined to answer any Declining to answer it by saying next question. I answered this question a thousand times. Let's take a listen to it apology I'm gonna apologize for How things was last time I came up here before y 'all I think dearly I I dislike when it's a lot of separation and when something gets between the team and people get painted a certain way and all this different type of stuff. So that's where I get frustrated and I shut down, you know, because this doesn't help us win. So it's kind of like an option, but not an option.

1:06:15so i don't i feel drained when i express myself uh to people in places and cameras when it's not perceived and taken the right way or we're trying to divide the team or anything like that so

1:06:27Shannon Sharpe:that's where i was just trying to preserve my energy from going in depth with a lot of things so

1:06:36Shannon Sharpe:I like it. What do you think, Joe? Man, I think this kid, Ocho, always says the right thing. Always. And it's like they always try to get him to go viral by asking him rhetorical questions. But he never takes the bait, bro. We keep it 100. He's the only damn reason the Browns are relevant right now. For sure. If we just keeping it 100. Absolutely. I don't watch. I watch the Browns to see Shadou. I'm just going to keep it 100. I don't watch them for no other day. Everybody else watching for that reason too. Yeah. Outside of Cleveland. Now Cleveland watching because they're the Browns. But everybody outside of Cleveland watching because of Shadou.

1:07:19Shannon Sharpe:Lamar had his jersey retired in 2021. So the number eight at Louisville is retired currently. But go ahead, Ocho. What you thinking?

1:07:29Joe Johnson:I mean, it's the media. especially in Cleveland. They're looking for the next click. That's it. They're looking for the next viral moment. It's the median job to get him to say anything and trip him up. They want him to fail so bad. Not only do they want him to fail they are looking to divide. They know it's a team game. They know it's a healthy competition. Somebody has to start. Somebody has to be the backup. But they're going to ask the right questions the questions that makes him uncomfortable that he doesn't want to answer and he's very media savvy. Obviously, his father has already had him prepared for these moments, especially like this.

1:08:06Joe Johnson:He knows how to do it. And he probably hit a point where he got a little frustrated. And instead of answering anything before he said the wrong thing, you know what? Next question. I'm not even going to answer it because they're trying to trip him up and get him to say something that they can hold on to and twist his words up. Listen, he's playing it the right way. I agree.

1:08:25Shannon Sharpe:I mean, what you want him to say is a competition. He wants to win. I want to win. Both of us can't win. So whoever wins the job, the other has to be the backup and be supportive. So how do you think you fare? I think I'm doing very well. Deshaun thinks he's doing very well, but that's neither one of our decisions. At the end of the day, the coach is going to make the best decision for this team, for this organization and who he thinks is the starting quarterback. Well, did they promise you you're going to be the starter? They don't make promises in sports. promises like pie crust thin and easily broken you make a commitment once you commit to a player that's until he does something to break that commitment that's the guy that you roll with do you feel you're getting a fair shake fair that's where you get cotton candies ride the merry-go-round they judge animals at the fair hello that's a good one all i want is an opportunity to go out there and every day all i try to do is i come in here and i try to get better today than I was yesterday.

1:09:28Shannon Sharpe:And I'll try to be better tomorrow than I was today. But I'm not worried about yesterday and tomorrow. Because those are the two days of the week that I can never do anything about. Yesterday and tomorrow. So today is what I'm focusing on. So after he answers that, after he answers that 15 times, those same questions, 15 times, 15 different ways, you come back and next way what? I want him to get frustrated because I want him to say something that I can hold up against him.

1:09:58Shannon Sharpe:I don't know what you want him to say. Listen. What you want him to say. You know what they want him to say, guys? What's that? I deserve to be the starting quarterback. I'm playing better than Deshaun. He never takes the bait, bro.

1:10:09Joe Johnson:No. He ain't. No quarterback will ever say that. No.

1:10:13Shannon Sharpe:I got a question. I got a question. Yes. Maybe the Browns are trying to showcase Watson for maybe a potential trade, or maybe the Browns are protecting Shador and maybe he will start for the regular season. I'm just saying I think obviously with the money that Deshaun is making, he's going to get a chance, but at least by week four, okay, Ocho. Joe, I get what you're saying. Ocho, and you can disagree if you like. I just don't see a team out there that would trade for Deshaun at$46 million.

1:10:54Shannon Sharpe:got a point unless he just balls to the walls but why would Cleveland give him up if he just you know what I mean I just don't know I just don't know I mean asking him the same question every day about the starting job at quarterback I guess hey it's your door I guess you'll see what hey I'm trying to get better today I guess That's when week one rolls out there, whoever runs out there with the first unit, that's your starter. Until then, coach hasn't told me anything. I don't know what coach has told Deshaun. I just know what he's told me. Son, come out here, get better every day. And I like to think that I'm getting better every day.

1:11:40Shannon Sharpe:I like to think that I'm better than I was last year at this time. I'm light years ahead of where I were last year at this time. That's all I can do, guys. I don't know what y 'all want me to say. I don't know what you want me to do. Y 'all want me to beat Deshaun up? That way I'm the clear clear. Y 'all want me to pull a Tonya Hardy? They want the turmoil. Yeah. Between them two. That's what they want, bro. That ain't going to happen. So, I mean, Tyme has done a great job with him. The only position this kid has ever played is quarterback. And when you only play that position, you got to be a politician.

1:12:26Shannon Sharpe:Really, you got to be a politician. Yeah. You got everything. Everything is got. It sounds cliche-ish, cliche-ish, but it is what it is. Because nothing carries weight like the quarterback or the star player.

1:12:46Shannon Sharpe:So what y 'all want the man to do? He didn't answer the question. Ask and answer. If I was the attorney, ask and answer. Your Honor, the badge and the witness. Your Honor, the badge and the man. Leave the man alone. Damn. I don't know what y 'all want him to do. What you want him to say.

1:13:09Shannon Sharpe:The Browns have named Deshaun Watson their starting quarterback for the preseason game Saturday against the Bears. According to Adam Schefter, the plan is to start Shadour in the second preseason game at home next Saturday against the Bills. Guys, what do you think? Shadour gets a fair shot? You think he gets an opportunity? So the question is, how many snaps is Deshaun going to get in the first game? How many snaps does Shadour get in the first game? How many snaps does Shadour get in the second game? How many snaps does Deshaun get in the second game?

1:13:47Joe Johnson:Well, based on what I've always said, I think Deshaun gets the first two series. Okay. I think Deshaun Watson gets the first two series. Then Shadour comes in and plays a bulk of the game and Dylan Gabriel finishes it off. Okay. That's the way I feel it will go. And maybe if they do it like they've been doing it in practice, where one person gets all the reps on a certain day with the ones, then if that's what they're doing, then the preseason of the game, the second preseason of the game, I'm assuming then Shadour will start and get – but that just doesn't make sense. To me, that doesn't make sense.

1:14:33Shannon Sharpe:So what if you start – what if Deshaun start the first game? Maybe Shadour don't even play, but he starts the second game.

1:14:39Joe Johnson:You know what I mean? Hey, Joe, he going to play. It's the preseason. He got to play no matter what. He's got to play. But listen, the fact that we're trying to guess and we're trying to figure out who's going to start, this is a result of not being able to make a call on who's going to be your starting quarterback. So it leaves everybody in limbo. It gives everyone something to talk about. It creates a conversation instead of naming your starting quarterback, which I think almost every single team has done to this point. The season starts in what? The season starts in what, a week? A week?

1:15:13Shannon Sharpe:September, if I'm not mistaken, I think September 9th.

1:15:17Joe Johnson:How many weeks we got? Two weeks, right?

1:15:20Shannon Sharpe:Yeah.

1:15:21Joe Johnson:Three. Three? Three.

1:15:23Shannon Sharpe:Damn, that many? Yeah, because remember, you got to remember, Ocho, they don't start until, so today is the 14th now. So the 14th. So, yeah, they got three weeks before they play. Okay. Because remember that you used to go the fourth preseason game. That's right. And then you play that Friday. So now they got three preseason games. So you got a bye week, basically. And then you start.

1:15:51Joe Johnson:Yeah, that's tough. I have no idea. I have no idea. But like I said before, in regards to who plays in the preseason, I just feel from a business perspective, with the person making the most money, the bulk of the money, making that much money, he would be your starter. If things don't go well, I think Shadour goes in. and he will be the quarterback for the foreseeable future.

1:16:15Shannon Sharpe:I think the thing – now, the only thing that can – because Shadour is like thinking like, yeah, I remember when y 'all told me that Wednesday was going to be my day to take – it was supposed to be my day. Right. And then what happened? Y 'all told me – and Shefter was reporting that, hey, the plan is for Shadour to get the lion's share of the reps in the second preseason game, a home game against the Bills. I heard that somewhere before, that it was supposed to be – I was supposed to get the lion's share of the reps. Yeah. And then what happened?

1:16:45Shannon Sharpe:So I can't control What the coaches Oh Joe We could never control What the coaches Was gonna do

1:16:52Joe Johnson:Oh no You can't

1:16:53Shannon Sharpe:Our team was gonna do They're gonna do Joe they're gonna do What they're gonna do My job is to like When I get my opportunity To go in there I gotta do What I know I can do It's hard I just I'm gonna make I'm gonna make it As tough on you As possible Right This decision Is not gonna be easy that's all i can do it's you know what you know what's difficult it's like because it's like the brain it learns patterns on canocho and whoever's in charge has learned how to destroy a person's spirit bro i'm just gonna keep it 100 the browns have lost so much it seemed like they self-destructing bro i ain't gonna lie to you from what i see because it seemed like they just trying to suck the life out of this young man.

1:17:40Shannon Sharpe:When I watch him speak and how he talk, you seen how he was kind of, you know, it almost seemed as if he didn't even want to be up there talking today because, you know, talk about the rhetorical questions that they asked me. Like, man, I'm so sick of this. Like, I've been dealing with this for the past couple years and I was like, come on, bro. What else I got to do to show that, you know, I'm proven I'm ready to you know, lead the Browns in the right direction. I know and for him he's like the only thing the quarterback the competition is not the only thing that's going on with the Cleveland Browns although you guys are making it the only thing that you're interested in well it's the most exciting

1:18:20Joe Johnson:thing it's the one thing that everybody not just Cleveland fans not just the Cleveland media it's the one thing that's going to get everybody to listen everybody to read

1:18:30Shannon Sharpe:can I ask you a question if the quarterback competition between Dylan Gabriel and Deshaun Watson. Would it be this much interest in it?

1:18:38Joe Johnson:Absolutely not. No. Hell no.

1:18:44Shannon Sharpe:That's all I'm saying?

1:18:45Joe Johnson:No.

1:18:47Shannon Sharpe:That's it. We know who moves the needle. So we're going to find out. They say Deshaun's going to start this week. And next week when the game is at home, Shadour's going to start. We'll see if that holds true. Because Shadour said, y 'all told me I was going to start the other day. and come to find out ain't nobody tell me nothing. Hello. Hey. Keep your head up, y 'all, fella. That's it. That's it. Y 'all ain't gonna break that man confidence. He ain't gonna let you and his dad ain't gonna let him let you. Right.
