Chronic migraine is 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting four hours or more.

Botox, on a botulinum toxin A, prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine before they start. It's not for those with 14 or fewer headache days a month. It prevents on average eight to nine headache days a month versus six to seven for placebo.

Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor. Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms. Alert your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems or muscle weakness can be signs of a life-threatening condition. Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk. Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue and headache. Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms and dizziness. Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions including ALS Lou Gehrig's disease, myasthenia gravis or Lambert-Eaton syndrome and medications including botulinum toxins as these may increase the risk of serious side effects.

He was arguably the most pro-ready receiver in this year's rookie class. Right now, everything that he has done at training camp has bared that out, has validated that assertion. I'm Liz Loza. This is Facts Vs. Feelings and today's fact is that percussion can lead to persuasion.
Hello, Daniel Dopp, fresh off of many, many mocks and back in your tiny box. I did not mean to do all of that rhyming, but I think it sounded pretty lyrical.

**Daniel Dopp** (1:30)
You're good at what you're good at, Liz, and you shouldn't be ashamed of that. If you ever want to write children's books, that's another career that you could potentially have. But today on the show, Liz, I want to talk to you about an article that you're going to be writing and the big part of our show today, drumbeat players. I look forward to this article every single year on espn.com. What is a drumbeat player, though, before we dive into these names?

**Liz Loza** (1:51)
Well, this is the time of year where training camps are in full swing and different players are starting to make noise. A considerable syncopation, if you will, is building. Some people call it buzz, other people call it momentum. But there are some players that are starting to separate themselves in a unique way and maybe their ADP is rising as a result or maybe people just haven't started to listen yet. So these are the players that I like to identify in my drumbeats article so that we can, yes, live in the present but also have an eye towards the future.

**Daniel Dopp** (2:26)
All right, Liz, then let's start with the quarterback position. Talk about our signal caller and Justin Herbert has perennially been a guy that we have wanted more from in fantasy over the last couple of years. He has not been inside the top 10 at the quarterback position, not finished there since 2021
And so we've been waiting for a couple of years to have him get back to that early season success, early career success that we saw when he was a little bit younger in the league. Now we're excited with Mike McDaniel coming over as the OC. It definitely feels like between him, Herbert and all the pieces of this offense, you have a pretty nice drum beat. Tell me how you feel about Justin Herbert.

**Liz Loza** (3:02)
Well, to be fair, Herbert's drum beat has turned more into a Travis Barker upside down solo. By the way, I just watched the doc about him. Excellent, would definitely recommend it.
But to that point, the excitement is absolutely building, in large part, you're right, to the addition of Mike McDaniel, who had a ton of offers to take jobs elsewhere, but specifically signed with the Chargers because he wanted to unlock everything that Herbert has within his skill set from, yes, his cannon of an arm that we all recognize, but also to his mobility, which we did see more of last season, even if we saw that because of a lack of protection. So I think there's a really great opportunity, and all reports from Kemp suggest that these two have clicked and that Herbert has been able to adapt to McDaniel's scheme with astonishing ease.

**Daniel Dopp** (3:55)
Hey, that'll make it a lot easier if you have an offensive line that would protect him as well. Did not have Rashawn Slater or Joe Ault for a bunch of games last year. Very excited to have them both back.
