Austin Ekeler on being a 0-star recruit, Jayden Daniels, Commanders, & why RBs have been devalued

Published 2024-06-07
The Commanders’ newest running back Austin Ekeler joins the show to talk about free agency, Jayden Daniels, and why he chose Washington over other teams. He reflects on his early beginnings as a zero-star high school recruit and his journey to becoming one of the most versatile running backs in the league in his 7 seasons with the Chargers. Austin wraps things up sharing his thoughts on Christian McCaffrey’s record-setting contract extension and explains why running backs are frustrated with their value.

    I’ve been a Washington fan since 87 , I’m so glad Synder is gone , it’s really year 1 of the change and I can already see they are building a winning culture. Getting guys with a Winners mentality.

    Great Guest! I want the commanders to do well this year! Best case scenario JD5 gets one more win than RG3 rookie year 11-6 Realistic scenario so I don’t break my heart 7-10
