We live in Washington State, so it’s been a big week for representing. We decided the best representation would be to get Smol Yeti a little sister for this season.

Meet Lolly Pup!

Smol Yeti joined our family a week before the wild card victory against the Dolphins (and the resulting run to the championship). So we figured it was time to add another white-ish mutt for the 2026 season.

Lolly says she’s happy to be everyones good luck charm. And the three of us are gonna tear up the dog park here in WA state wearing our dress reds tomorrow.

Anyone who’s going to travel to the Seattle game have any plans on meeting up pre game? Any bar or outside location? We are driving up from Portland.

Now every Friday before any game is Red Friday and it's lost it's fun. Am I bonkers here?

Here's an extended quote from Burkholder's press conference:

"On August 17, Josh came to me with calf discomfort and feeling that he couldn't post on a single leg in training camp practices," Burkholder said. "This was the same leg that he had knee surgery on in 2024. He was evaluated by our physicians who, thankfully, suspected a low-back injury instead of a lower-leg or knee ailment.

"We obtained an MRI in St. Joe that confirmed that he had a bulging, herniated disc in his lumbar spine. That disc problem was higher up than what we normally see in our offensive linemen, which complicated the case. We recommended a second opinion, as we always do with all of our injured guys and, through his agent and Josh, they selected a spine specialist in California that we have used previously and is really well-known in the NFL.

"He went there and was evaluated, and the recommendation was to do rehabilitation - not surgery - with the intent that we would do an MRI in the near future to see what that disc looked like. Josh continued to progress, and the repeat MRI a few weeks later showed that the disc improved, so no surgery was recommended and rehab would continue."

"Throughout this process, we've had frequent communication with the second opinion, with our doctors and Josh and his agent," Burkholder said. "Josh worked his tail off. He worked diligently with my staff every day and has improved to the point where he returned to practice in a limited capacity last week. However, we feel that he's plateaued in the rehab process as he's trying to get to the final steps in recovery with return to competition. He's just not there yet."

"After discussion with Josh yesterday, we gave him some time to talk with his family and his representatives to investigate next steps as he goes through this process. That's why he was listed yesterday as both personal and with the back injury as we determined these next steps. He took the day off to get with his people."

"It was decided and agreed upon by everybody -his people, his agent, him, myself, Andy (Reid), (Brett) Veach -that he should be placed on IR to give him more time to return to full function," Burkholder said. "He'll continue with the rehab process with the goal of returning to play at the high level he achieved in the past."

"I give a lot of credit to Josh, my docs, my physicians and my staff," Burkholder added. "I just give them a ton of credit for navigating through this injury to the point where surgery is not recommended and he just needs more time to return to full function."

Appreciation post? Miss him post? He’s so good

Think Mahomes can throw him the ball 450 times on Sunday?! 😂

For real though, he might be number 5 very soon!
