Episode Description

In hour 2 of The Drive, Phil and Aniello take a deep dive into the Broncos and preview the 3rd preseason game. Has the 3rd preseason game become meaningless for many NFL teams? How important will Friday's game be to depth players and players on the roster bubble? What position battles are still up for grabs? How are the guys feeling about the Broncos tight end room heading into the season? Has Evan Engram proved that he can be both a blocking and receiving threat? Today's "Three Count" includes Connor Hellebuyck officially requesting a trade from the Winnipeg Jets, the Rockies raising their prices on season tickets by as much as 14% for next season, and the Broncos introducing a new 2-foot hot dog. We react to Christian Braun's comments about the Nuggets having everything they need to win a championship. Is this blind optimism, or has the Nuggets' offseason given them a chance to compete?
