My favorite quote: "So what I think the players are underestimating is what we all digest. They're great players, but I hate to say this, they're a dime a dozen. You're on a conveyor belt as a player. There's other players coming right behind you."

I feel like he's been wishy washy on in it in the past but is pretty definitive here. If a player blows up and is able to score marketing deals for himself, so be it. Anything beyond that is not good.

This is true, but how many have benefited from NIL money without playing a down.
Great gig if you can get it.
