Summary
Freshly retired Browns guard Joel Bitonio joins Ken and Anthony to reflect on his 12-year career, sharing his toughest moments including the devastating playoff loss in Houston and the 0-16 season early in his career. Bitonio opens up about his Hall of Fame case, his plans post-football, and why he didn't want to pull a Brett Favre with his retirement decision.
