On today’s live edition of The Next Round, we break down why Russell is being mentioned as one of the top dark-horse Heisman candidates entering the 2026 college football season. Can the highly touted Alabama quarterback win the starting job over Austin Mack in Kalen DeBoer’s offense? If Russell becomes QB1 in Tuscaloosa, could his dynamic playmaking ability, explosive supporting cast, and comparisons to Jayden Daniels make him a legitimate Heisman Trophy contender? We look at the best NFL bounce-back candidates hosted by the Minnesota Vikings, New York Jets, and Atlanta Falcons. Which players and teams are set up for a major rebound in the 2026 NFL season? NBA expansion team coming to Vegas? PLUS, our daily 4 Downs presented by Central Alabama Asphalt!
