The Drive | Hour 2 | 08.21.25

In hour 2 of The Drive, Zach and Phil listen to Sean Payton’s first comments on the Devaughn Vele trade. Was Payton’s choice to trade Vele a tough decision? The guys speculate who were the other teams interested in Vele. Was Vele ever going to be in Sean Payton’s vision? Will this move come back to bite the Broncos if Vele shines elsewhere? Today’s “Three Count” includes Von Miller calling Peyton Manning his GOAT for changing how the quarterback position is played, the Rockies shelling Shohei Ohtani in last night’s Rockies win over the Dodgers, and the news about bullets being shot into Andy Reid’s office at the Chiefs facility. With Colorado kicking off their season in 8 days, we discuss the Buffs best and worst case scenarios.
