    How much more is there to say about Browns QB Deshaun Watson's rehab?

    How much more is there to say about Browns QB Deshaun Watson's rehab?

    We saw Deshaun Watson throw for the first time at an open media session last week and, on Monday at the Browns annual charity golf outing, Kevin Stefanski reiterated what he said about Watson a couple weeks ago. So what's left to say about Watson?
    Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe talk about Watson and what's left to say until we see the next steps in his rehab process. They also get into a video Mary Kay tweeted from OTAs that went viral and if it meant anything.
    They start Monday's Orange and Brown Talk podcast by discussing the future of Joel Bitonio, who spoke on Monday, and how much longer the team's left guard could play.
    They wrap up the podcast by getting into Justin Jefferson's contract extension, the future of the market and how the Browns and GM Andrew Berry are trying to stay ahead.

    How much will Mike Vrabel be involved with the Browns? Hey, Mary Kay!

    Former Titans coach Mike Vrabel, a Northeast Ohio native, Ohio State alum and Super Bowl champion with the Patriots, is a consultant with the Browns and was very visible on the field during Thursday's OTA practice. How involved will Vrabel be with the Browns?
    Mary Kay Cabot and Dan Labbe start Friday's Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk podcast by discussing Vrabel's role with the Browns and what he'll offer them.
    They also answer questions from Football Insider subscribers about Elijah Moore and if he could be used as an outside receiver with Jerry Jeudy in the slot when the Browns are in three receiver sets. They spend time talking about the new kickoff rule and why the Browns are going back to the Greenbrier before finishing up with a discussion about Deshaun Watson's arm strength and where he's at in his rehab.

    How Browns Deshaun Watson looked on Thursday at OTAs

    How Browns Deshaun Watson looked on Thursday at OTAs

    Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson threw the football in front of the media on Thursday during OTA practice, the first time we've had a chance to see him throw since the win in Baltimore.
    Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe start their Thursday Orange and Brown Talk podcast by discussing what they saw from Watson. How did he look throwing the football? What does it all mean? What stood out?
    Then they get into Elijah Moore, who showed up this week and spoke to the media on Thursday. They discussed the vibes Moore gave off and his fit in offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey's offense.
    They also talk about players not coming to OTAs and if they'd like to see more players show up. Does it matter if they do or don't?
    And, of course, they get into Mike Vrabel's appearance on the field and getting to see Vrabel do some coaching with the Browns for the first time.

Background news

Like the update-to-date info and consistency of browns content, but the audio is not good. Too much background noise off mic (pens dropping, people talking, chairs moving, clothes rustling, people breathing). If your intent is to attract audio listeners, it would be helpful to hire an audio professional to assist with recording or at least advise on how it can get better and what not to do.

Netflix Series Quarterback

I must admit, it was somewhat eye-opening that MKC and Ashley admitted to not watching the Netflix show “Quarterback.” This is a tremendous opportunity to get previously inaccessible insights about the most important position in the sport that they cover for a living. I can’t fault MKC for her years of great work and experience, but Ashley? Come on!

Daily insights

I like that the show is nearly everyday. Some of the presenters have voices made for print journalism and it can be difficult to listen to but the A Team of Mary Kay, Dan & Ashley are all fantastic, presenting concise well researched insights with the professionalism level of the best radio and TV pros. Awesome!
