The Herd with Colin Cowherd

Nick Wright reacts to Adam Silver and the NBA punishing Steve Ballmer and the Los Angeles Clippers for the Kawhi Leonard scandal, originally brought to light by Pablo Torre’s reporting into Aspiration, breaking down its long-term impact on LA and Leonard. Is the Kawhi trade the worst in NBA history? Later, Nick reacts to more rankings around the NFL listing Josh Allen as the league's best player. Nick breaks down why he can't get behind the Josh Allen hype and his expectations for the Buffalo Bills' quarterback moving forward. Next, Nick shares his predictions for the 2026 NFL season from division winners to Super Bowl champion. Nick is high on Lamar Jackson's Baltimore Ravens and Jalen Hurts' Philadelphia Eagles to bounce back in a big way... just not as big as Patrick Mahomes and his Kansas City Chiefs. #Volume
