About this episode
Gregg Rosenthal is joined by NFL Network Chief National Reporter Steve Wyche to reveal numbers 20 through 16 of NFL Daily's Top 25 Players of the Last 25 Years. The duo starts with Cleveland Browns DE Myles Garrett (0:52) at number 20. Then, Wyche and Rosenthal pay respects to one of the best offensive guards in football history, longtime Dallas Cowboy Zack Martin (12:26), at number 19. Martin is followed by Pro Football Hall of Famer Julius Peppers (21:50) -- the fourth most prolific sack artist in NFL history -- at number 18. For Peppers, the duo takes a look back at an incredible two-play sequence that exemplifies the type of freak athlete Pep was over his 17 year career. The last non-QB to win MVP, running back Adrian Peterson (31:58), comes in at number 17. Wyche shares a classic story of the first time he met Peterson, and other anecdotes about his incredible rushing career. Future Hall of Fame Quarterback Drew Brees (44:06) rounds out this tier of players at number 16. With Brees being another player Wyche covered extensively in the NFC South, the veteran reporter shares story after story about the greatest player in New Orleans Saints history.
