Like a Phoenix rising from the ashes, Friends From Football makes its triumphant return in this standalone podcast episode. It's been over 2 years since I (Kyle) hopped on here to chat ball. With starting NFL QB (friend of the pod) Kirk Cousins balling last night, I felt like it was time to check in. This episode is part random NFL tangents, part therapy session and part celebration. While I realize that Kirk Cousins, the Falcons, Vikings and the NFL have probably almost no crossover with Marvel fans, I appreciate those of who you do stick around to listen.
