Aaron Donald

Jalon Daniels 

Bill Belichick

On this episode of 3 & Out, John Middlekauff reacts to the shocking return of Aaron Donald to the NFL. After stepping away from football, the future Hall of Famer is back—and John breaks down what motivated the comeback, what Donald can still bring to the field, and what his return means for the league.

John also dives into the incredible story of Jalon Daniels, who went undrafted but battled his way toward earning an NFL roster spot. John discusses Daniels' journey, the obstacles he overcame, and why stories like his are what make the NFL so compelling.

The conversation then shifts to college football, where Bill Belichick and UNC picked up a statement win over TCU. John breaks down what the victory says about Belichick's transition to the college game and whether UNC could become a legitimate factor under the legendary coach.

Plus, USC dominated its opponent, but the performance came with a surprising storyline: the stadium was practically empty. John discusses the atmosphere surrounding the Trojans, what the lack of attendance says about the program, and why winning isn't always enough to capture a fan base.

From an NFL legend making a comeback and an undrafted player fighting for his dream to Bill Belichick's college debut and USC's attendance problem, it's all covered on this episode of 3 & Out.
