All Things Covered with Patrick Peterson and Bryant McFadden

Patrick Peterson and Bryant McFadden link up to cover all things! First, the guys discuss the issue of vaccinations in the NFL (1:45). As Vikings coach Mike Zimmer said, it will be much tougher for players this season if they aren't vaccinated. Pat P talks about why being vaccinated will not only help yourself but the team as a whole. We then transition into SKOL Check-In (8:15), where we cover Danielle Hunter's presence at minicamp, a scary situation for a Minnesota rookie and the potential of the defense. 'Has Pat Heard!?' continues to put P2 to the test (17:15) and '7 Questions' asks which former CB would our CBs like to play alongside the most (22:30)! New York Giants 2nd-year safety Xavier McKinney joins Patrick Peterson and Bryant McFadden to break down his football journey (28:00). Xavier speaks about his college career first , including why he chose Alabama over Clemson, Nick Saban's future with the Crimson Tide and practicing against Tua Tagovailoa, Jalen Hurts and Mac Jones. McKinney also takes us through his short time in the pros so far, commenting on slipping on draft night, his first INT vs. the Cowboys and holding a grudge against the Eagles for how they handled Week 17. How does he expect the G-Men to perform in 2021? Watch for his confidence level in Daniel Jones PLUS Superlatives.
