Let's do this now.

And I would be surprised if the union would reject an offer that Tracy Tretter would be recommending to them, especially if, and I don't know this is going to happen,

But I've caught wind of the possibility that an expansion to 18 games would include a limit for each player to 17 games played each season.

And a lot of guys will miss a game anyway due to injury.

But you get into some weird stuff late in the season where you have to use healthy scratches on players who haven't missed a game yet.

That's one way that they're possibly going to get this through.

Tell the players who are reluctant about playing 18 games, you don't have to.

You're only going to play 17.

Wouldn't that be hilarious if it happened?

Because that's exactly what transpired four years ago when Kenny Pickett was still on the board and everybody was looking.

We don't want Kenny Pickett 2.0.

So maybe, maybe if it's a coin flip.

OK, we flipped it last time and it came up tails.

We'll flip it this time.

It comes up heads like you can't.

let that influence you one way or the other.

If you've got an evaluation of Ty Simpson that you trust and you're willing to sit there and wait for him, they did that with Najee Harris, too.

Everybody knew they were going to take Najee Harris, and they sat and waited, and he fell to them.

Nobody jumped the line to get Najee Harris.

The question is, number one, will someone take Ty Simpson before he gets to the Steelers?
