Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson are still with the teams that drafted them...for now. Sports Illustrated senior writer Albert Breer is joined by former NFL linebacker Bobby Carpenter and former Falcons GM Thomas Dimitroff on the premiere episode of The Hurry-Up to recap a drama-filled NFL offseason that saw rumors swirling around Rodgers and Wilson potentially leaving Green Bay and Seattle, respectively. Much like the NBA, it's clear that NFL players have more control over their futures than ever.
From franchise quarterbacks to the QBs of the future, the crew discusses how soon fans might see the rookie debuts of first-round picks like Justin Fields, Trey Lance and Mac Jones. Other topics include which non-QB will have the biggest impact on his new team, and the hesitancy of Lamar Jackson and Kirk Cousins to get the COVID vaccine.
