On this episode of 3 & Out, John Middlekauff breaks down a major move in the trenches as the Cincinnati Bengals trade for star defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence. What does the deal mean for Cincinnati’s defense, and how does it shift the balance of power in the AFC?
John also checks in on the New York Giants, taking a closer look at where the franchise stands and what’s next as they continue to reshape their roster. Plus, a deep dive into electric playmaker Zachariah Branch and how his arrest could lead to teams passing on him.
The conversation then turns to Houston, where Will Anderson cashes in with a massive extension—what it says about the Texans’ long-term vision and how it impacts C.J. Stroud and the rest of the roster moving forward.
To wrap things up, John reacts to LeBron James and Bronny picking up a playoff win together, adding another unique chapter to their story.
From blockbuster trades to rising stars and big-picture roster moves, it’s all covered on this episode of 3 & Out.
