Netflix just pulled the curtain back on the highly anticipated third season of its hit sports docuseries. Scheduled to premiere on July 14, 2026, the official cast lineup promises unprecedented behind-the-scenes access to four distinct signal-callers from the 2025 NFL season: Jayden Daniels, Baker Mayfield, Cam Ward, and veteran Joe Flacco.
The upcoming installment captures unique career crossroads for each athlete. Fans will follow Cam Ward navigating his rookie debut as the 2025 No. 1 overall draft pick with the Tennessee Titans, but the most compelling hook centers on Joe Flacco. For the first time in the history of the show, cameras capture a player being traded mid-season, chronicling Flacco’s transition from the Cleveland Browns to the divisional rival Cincinnati Bengals.
The rest of the screen time focuses on Jayden Daniels entering his sophomore campaign with the Washington Commanders following his Offensive Rookie of the Year performance, alongside Baker Mayfield entering his third season stabilizing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Peyton Manning through Omaha Productions and Patrick Mahomes via 2PM Productions both return as executive producers alongside NFL Films.
The casting has already triggered a wave of conversation across the sports media industry. Analysts Chris Simms and Mike Florio dedicated specific broadcast segments on NBC Sports’ Pro Football Talk to reacting to the four names chosen, debating how the show will balance veteran transitions with high-stakes rookie development.
