Colin reacts to the Pro Bowl rosters and how the quarterback class there represents resiliency. Caleb Williams is being called a “Pro Bowl snub,” but you can say the same for Jared Goff by that metric. The Lamar Jackson situation in Baltimore turns incredibly sour, and it’s safe to ask how long his marriage with the Ravens will last as he reportedly seeks more money. Colin takes a stand – Justin Herbert isn’t overrated and you can’t put him down because of playoffs, he’s electric with Jim Harbaugh.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
