**Shannon Sharpe** (0:30)
At 35, CD Lab at 34 But what he got was $30 million more than anybody got guaranteed, Ocho. He got 108 million. Joe.

**Chad Johnson** (0:40)
Yes.

**Shannon Sharpe** (0:42)
Jerry gonna really, really hate that he didn't sign PIC. Because he's going to pay him. A receiver's now getting triple figures, triple figures in guaranteed money.

**Chad Johnson** (0:56)
Oh, it's all about timing, boy.

**Shannon Sharpe** (0:58)
Damn. Inflation.

He gonna get his money too, huh? What you gonna do with that? Man, Jerry Pockett's long. Why y'all act like that man Pockett? I know he's Pockett's long, but let me ask you a question. What are you gonna do about Quintin Williams? Oh. Hey, guess what, fellas? Did you see what the old boy just got?
Jalen Carter? From the Eagles. Yeah.

**Chad Johnson** (1:47)
Yeah.

**Shannon Sharpe** (1:47)
Jephrys Simmons?
Yeah, he got a bag now. He got a bag. He got a bag.

**Chad Johnson** (1:52)
Cren Jones?

**Shannon Sharpe** (1:53)
Yeah. And I think, I think what's gonna make it like 22 million, and you got a guy make it almost 50 million a year.

**Chad Johnson** (2:00)
Yeah, Jephrys is over there, baby.

**Shannon Sharpe** (2:01)
Hey, we gonna cross that bridge when we get to it, okay?

**Chad Johnson** (2:05)
Hey, listen, I'm with you when you're right, man.

**Shannon Sharpe** (2:08)
Yeah.

**Chad Johnson** (2:11)
I know, but these owners telling players, you know what?
We betting against you, so we want you to better yourself. Let me see you do it again. It's gonna hurt.

**Shannon Sharpe** (2:21)
Joe. What's up? In the words of Joe Crack, yesterday's price, not today's price. Hello.

**Chad Johnson** (2:28)
Not today's price.

**Shannon Sharpe** (2:31)
Hello. Puka Nacua, high new agents amid rams contract rumors ahead of 2026 NFL season. Are the rams in trouble if Puka extension isn't reached? Ocho.
Who is rep? Go ahead. Go ahead, Ocho.

**Chad Johnson** (2:45)
I saw it. It's something sports, some company. I saw it earlier.
Yeah, I saw it earlier today. But no, they're not in trouble. He's in practice. He's working. He's doing everything necessary. He's doing everything he's supposed to be doing to get ready for this season to have another stellar season.
He's going to reset the market. I'm not sure what JSN got. I don't know the numbers. They're not in front of me. Chris Olave, he didn't get above, you know, Jamar Chase or I'm sure he might be right under Justin Jefferson.

**Shannon Sharpe** (3:20)
I think that's the same group that what you call them had, Zay Flowers.

**Chad Johnson** (3:23)
Who?

**Shannon Sharpe** (3:24)
They have Jordan Davis, Matt Abuike, Deion Dawkins.

**Chad Johnson** (3:32)
Hey, hey, Puka finna set the market. Oh yeah, I already know it. Hey, that number finna be stupid. I don't know what it's going to look like.

**Shannon Sharpe** (3:40)
I already know it.

**Chad Johnson** (3:44)
He's going to be looking at, what, 44, 45?

**Shannon Sharpe** (3:50)
44, 45 Damn.

**Chad Johnson** (3:52)
Yeah, yeah, that's going to be nice. Hey, he deserve every penny too, Joe.

**Shannon Sharpe** (3:58)
Yeah, he's phenomenal.

**Chad Johnson** (3:58)
Puka deserve every penny of it.

**Shannon Sharpe** (4:00)
He's got to make tough contests to catch us, run after the catch, he's everything. He just got to keep his nose clean for the next six months.
Had he stayed out of trouble, it probably would have been done. They just want to make sure all the eyes are dotted because the last thing I want is to give somebody a hundred plus million dollars and then I'm going to have him suspended.

**Chad Johnson** (4:24)
Right.

**Shannon Sharpe** (4:25)
And we see that still, hey, you know how the NFL operate, Ocho?

**Chad Johnson** (4:32)
Oh yeah, absolutely.

**Shannon Sharpe** (4:32)
But yeah, I think Puka, I never thought I'd see, hell, I didn't think I'd see a 30 million dollar receiver, let alone a 40 Eventually, we're going to see a 50 million dollar receiver. At some point. It's coming. Yeah, it's coming.
Dak Prescott, Dak Prescott does what he says, you know, when they talk about it, let's talk about it. Dak going to get 70 million dollars. Ooh.
