The Peter King Podcast

Trade Deadline Recap + Vikings S Cam Bynum

·49 min·4 clips
Josh Dobbs is set to become the first NFL quarterback to start eight-plus games for two different teams in the same year.
The episode begins with Peter King and Miles Simmons introducing the trade deadline recap, recorded on Halloween night. They note the deadline was quieter than expected, with fewer big trades. The hosts dive into specific deals, starting with the 49ers trading a third-round pick for Chase Young, questioning the logic behind strengthening an already dominant defensive front. They review other trades, including Rasul Douglas to the Bills, Josh Dobbs to the Vikings, and Montez Sweat to the Bears, highlighting Dobbs' unique situation of potentially starting for two teams in one season. Simmons expresses confusion over the Bears' trade for Sweat without an immediate contract extension. King praises the Bills' acquisition of Douglas as a smart move for their secondary. The conversation shifts to players who weren't traded, with King criticizing the Titans for not dealing Derrick Henry and Simmons discussing the Raiders' decision to keep Davante Adams. King lists teams like the Patriots, Giants, Lions, and Rams as potential fits for Adams. The second half features an interview with Vikings safety Cameron Bynum, who recently had a standout game with two interceptions against the 49ers. Bynum details his personal life, explaining he married in March but his wife remains in the Philippines due to visa denials, despite advocacy from politicians. He describes the emotional toll of separation, the challenges of time differences, and their honeymoon focused on charity work. The episode concludes with King previewing his trip to Frankfurt for an NFL game and a light-hearted exchange about beer preferences.

As heard by us

A quiet trade deadline fuels a thoughtful Raiders debate before Cameron Bynum brings the episode beyond football.

The NFL trade deadline brought fewer major moves than Peter King expected, so he and NBC Sports' Miles Simmons spend much of the episode asking what teams chose not to do. The Raiders give them the most to work with.
