Ryan Fitzpatrick, Richard Sherman and Andrew Whitworth, are recreating a locker-room feel as part of Amazon’s first year as the exclusive Thursday night rightsholder. BOOMbaca has the details. NFLonPrime TNFonPrime
The trio, all three of whom stepped away from football after last season, are navigating life beyond the game together while maintaining a connection to the league on a weekly basis. From Wednesday night to Friday morning, they are together — recreating a locker-room feel so many ex-players long for once their playing days expire — as part of Amazon’s first year as the exclusive Thursday night rightsholder.
Reporter Taylor Rooks, who puts together feature spots for the shows, offered a positive outlook on the rain forecast that ultimately did not pan out. To celebrate the end of the meeting, Sherman tossed a napkin into the air. “Everybody root for a Packers win!” a producer said, since the Prime Video team will be in Green Bay on Thursday for Week 11 against the Tennessee Titans.
"You feel like you get to know somebody really intimately because you watch them so much. You’re like a stalker," Sherman said. "I’m watching this dude over and over and over." For Whitworth, the relationship building reminds him of his first season with the Los Angeles Rams in 2017 and the immediate connection he had with head coach Sean McVay. Whitworth had spent the first 11 seasons of his 16-year NFL career with the Cincinnati Bengals and walked away after winning Super Bowl 56 with the Rams in February.
Before games, if nobody has a pregame interview to conduct, everybody will relax until rehearsal at 6 p.m. Some NFL analysts watch warmups to track injuries or unlock a depth chart question. Not these guys. It would also require a level of hijinks, and this crew is also clearly capable of it. The morning of the first Prime Video broadcast, Sept. 15, Stacy was a ball of nerves at their Kansas City hotel. In the morning, he found Sherman and Fitzpatrick talking in the lobby. Whitworth was in the corner doing a live Zoom for NFL Network's"Good Morning Football." Stacy watched Fitzpatrick and Sherman realize Whitworth was on TV and in the same room as them.
