DeMaurice Smith, executive director of the National Football League Players Association, joins Scott Soshnick, Michael Barr and Eben Novy-Williams to discuss a host of issues related to the business of sports, including the looming labor battle between the NFL and its players. The union's leader since 2009, Smith oversaw negotiations on the current collective bargaining agreement, and shares his thoughts on where players stand as talks begin on the next one, set to kick in after the 2020 season. Smith also discusses the growth of NFL team valuations (the Cowboys are now worth north of $5 billion) and players starting to assert more power. He also talks about the rash of quarterback injuries in the early part of the NFL season, and whether he believes Colin Kaepernick, who hasn't played in three years, will get an offer from an NFL team.
