Jalen Hurts Gets Paid, NFL Draft Preview Pt. 1 & Texting Aaron Rodgers w/Sauce Gardner | EP 36

92%ers we are back with part 1 of our special NFL Draft Preview episode presented by our friends at Buffalo Wild Wings. Part 2 will be dropping next Monday so make sure you’re subscribed so you don’t miss it.
In this episode, we take a look at the Big Yeti getting buckets in High School, Donna Kelce making the NFL Hall of Fame before Tom Brady, give a breakdown of Travis’ just a bit outside first pitch, and give a shoutout to the NFL’s new highest-paid player Jalen Hurts.
We also explain what players like Jason and Travis are up to during draft week, why you should ignore mock drafts, and tell you which draft terminology matters.
This episode also includes our electric conversation with NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year, Sauce Gardner of the New York J-E-T-S Jets Jets Jets. We touch on everything from his Vegas draft day experience, why his golf game kept him from being a New York Giant, his first text to Aaron Rodgers, learning from Darrelle Revis, who is on his DB Mt. Rushmore, and if he thinks he’s got the best nickname in the NFL.
As always, watch and listen to new episodes of New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce every Wednesday & check us out on Instagram, Twitter, and Tik Tok for all the best moments from the show.

A Jets fan stealing the cheesehead off a Packers fan's head to give it to Sauce is the most Jets fan thing ever 😂💪💚✈

[@DolFinDude23]

The packers have a nice thing, the jets decide to take at in the end… sounds familiar

[@tristanxjason]

I felt so proud to be a Jets fan when he told that story 😂

[@TurnyMac]

Gotta get more guests like Sauce. He was engaged the entire time, dope episode 🔥

I agree! but its not too hard since they're both future 1st ballot HOF players. But still true

[@lyndahammel9502]

Yes we just need Andy Ried ❤ to come on the show.

[@roberttaylor5331]

Wait for this podcast every week and it never disappoints. While I was a big NFL fan 15 years ago when I was in high school, I have come to this podcast mostly from listening to comedy podcast and I can’t get enough. You have single handily brought me back to watching NFL more then just catching playoffs. Keep them coming gentlemen

Sauce is a real one. Gonna be standing alone atop the DB mountain by the time his career is over.

[@_TMac_13_916_]

@A Fùcking Bird Must be a Hawks fan... Woolen is very good and could have a great career. He's not on the same level though. Only the future will tell I suppose.

I love this podcast, and with how it’s grown i’m excited for the future. You two alone are entertaining enough but being in a sport with so many active and retired players to talk to y’all could do this every Wednesday with a new guest until y’all are like 92 years old
