What motivates Jarrett Payton as a sports figure?

My name is Jared Payton, and I am here to motivate you today. Former NFL running back. Jared Payton wearing his father's number, number 34, and looking like the old man. Look at this run. A gorgeous job by Jared Payton. The son of sweetness.

How does Jarrett Payton reflect on his father's legacy?

There's Walter with his Cubs jacket on. And here he comes up. His son, Jared, is with him. Sweetness. What an ovation. Sports anchor for WGN. You know me. I'm the resident running back. Jared Payton with Rahimi Harrison-Grody on Chicago Sports Radio. 670 The Score. Uncle Luke got me hooked on Hennessy, so thank you to Uncle Luke. That'll wake you up. Shout out to Uncle Luke. Shout out to Two Life Crew. Shout out to Jared Payton, who joins us on the Circa Resort and Casino Hotline, CircaLasVegas.com. Jared Payton in Arizona. Are you going to watch your alma mater play tonight? Layla, I am so ready right now. Man, we just got off the plane about an hour ago with my daughter. She's excited. She's got her nails painted with the U on her fingernails.
She is, like, ready to get 305'd out tonight. And, man, we're getting the opportunity to watch my Canes tonight and take on Ole Miss. So hopefully I can bring home a dubbed – and then get the dub on Saturday as well with the Bears. That would be the perfect end of my week. Teach them young, Jarrett. Don't teach them to be like these kids who don't care. The U on the fingernails while doing the U with the hands is a flex. That's what I'm talking about. You already know, Layla. What's going on with you guys? We're trying to figure it out, Jared. Whoa, whoa, whoa, Marshall. Marshall, stop, man. Layla brings the energy. You over here sounding like someone stole your lunch money. What's going on, man? First of all, I hope Miami beats the absolute tar out of that school up north because, you know, I am a Mississippi State graduate.
School up north? Ole Miss. Ole Miss is the school up north.

What are Jarrett Payton's thoughts on the Bears' playoff chances?

But it is. It's the University of Mississippi, first of all. I don't give into all that other crap. So, yes, good luck to your team tonight. Do you feel like there's a distinct advantage? And I'll tell you why I'm down. But do you feel like there's a distinct advantage because that team doesn't have a head coach? Yeah, I think there's definitely something there. They scare me a little bit, though, Marshall, just because of everything that happened with Lane Kiffin, and it just seems like they're re-energized. Offensively, they're a good football team, and so they can put up numbers and score points. The only thing that I love at this time of the year, and just football in general, is that if you have a defense that...

How does Jarrett feel about Miami's football team performance?

you have a chance to win any game. And so that's where I look at Reuben Bain and these guys. They got an opportunity to get after the quarterback. And when you're taking down teams like Ohio State and Texas A&M, you got to be able to win in the trenches. And I think both sides of the ball with this Miami team this year, Mario Cristobal has done a really, really good job of making sure that they can dominate on both sides of the football. And so that's what gives me a little bit more hope going into this game, as good as that Ole Miss offense is. Well, holding Texas A&M and Ohio State to 17 combined points in the first two rounds, they have every reason to be confident about that defense showing up.
Yeah, we are. It's really cool. I've been really close with Mario through this whole process this year and just staying in touch with him, talking with him. When we start to think about it, man... They're getting some Justin Scott from Oak Park, and he's on that defensive line. So Mario is really taking a liking to Illinois and Chicago with the talent that we have in Chicago. And so trying to get more kids to go to the 305 and be out there in the sunshine, play some football. And we got another kid going, too, as well. From South Elgin, this kid Gavin Mueller, a tight end. So he's going to be going down to Miami. He's actually already there. So a lot of kids from Chicago going down to my old stomping grounds and enjoying life in shorts and T-shirts and sunshine.
