Colorado quarterback Julian Lewis reveals he wasn't reading defenses for majority of 2025 season

Former Super Bowl champion Head Coach Doug Pederson joins Colin Cowherd to react to the Los Angeles Rams drafting Ty Simpson at No. 13 and the pressure on Jalen Hurts going into the 2026 season.

With Big 12 Media Days in full swing in Frisco, Texas, members of the media are loading up on content to help keep fans satiated during these final weeks before the start of the 2026 season.

That honor went to Colorado quarterback Julian "JuJu" Lewis.
