Description

Another South Florida legend joins the show to discuss his football journey. Andre Johnson was a part of one of the best (if not THE BEST) college football teams of all time and shares stories from the 2001 Miami Hurricanes. He then focuses on his time in the pros and long-winding path with the Houston Texans. Andre details what it was like to lose so much in the NFL after coming from such a winning college program. He remembers the 2006 NFL Draft where the Texans could have selected Reggie Bush or Vince Young but ended up going defense with Mario Williams at #1 overall. What was the feeling of finally making the playoffs in his 9th season? Johnson thinks Houston could have won it all that year if Matt Schaub had remained healthy. A notorious moment from our guest's career involved him fighting Cortland Finnegan of the Tennessee Titans. Dre lets us know what pushed him to that point. He also goes down memory lane to talk about the best game of his career and what the current Texans have to do in order to rebuild. Is there a way they can keep Deshaun Watson? Finally, we hear Johnson's Mount Rushmore of Texans, a list he is absolutely a part of.

Patrick Peterson and Bryant McFadden have made a living for their coverage skills on the football field, and while it's a different technique, they're now applying those traits on their podcast 'All Things Covered'. Instead of wide receivers, tight ends and running backs, they'll be covering sports, entertainment, social issues, personal interests and more. Every Wednesday, the 8-time Pro Bowler Peterson and 2-time Super Bowl champion McFadden will discuss what's happening on the gridiron as well as what intrigues them off the field. Each week they'll welcome a star from the sports and entertainment world to have wide-ranging conversations about what interests them. Guests can include active or former football players but also athletes and influencers from other sports and walks of life. Football is how we know our hosts, but far from what defines Pat and BMac. The name says everything; expect all things to be covered! You can also watch us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/AllThingsCovered
