Pat McAfee asks Bills GM Brandon Beane about the rumors

McAfee hung up, the audio returned to the show, and the host chatted for another minute about his conversation with Beane.

“I just spoke to general manager-level sources in the NFL who said, usually or sometimes, when it says teams have been called or shopped or whatever, you know, when it's a team call, it comes “It might come from the team saying, 'Hey, we don't have anyone calling but available.' But inside the building, I don't want to have to deal with being the ones doing the shopping.” So you never know. There are so many different ways this could go. Might have been an agent saying, 'Hey, teams are calling for Cooper Kupp.' I can't say that in this particular situation. He just generally says it is. But usually whenever something feeds into multiple sources like this, it's like, “Hey, yo, uh, how are you, keep it up.” I didn't ask him if he was going to be the one to call her . I feel like that would have been a bit too much in the middle of the show. But from his perspective, the general manager that I just spoke to, maybe for Buffalo, it's like every time this stuff comes out, it's like, uh, you know, it's like, uh , kind of like a “Hey, yo, here.” we're going.' And you never know if a team will actually call. You never know who you're bidding against. You know, it’s like a whole thing.”
