Product placement

NFL DIGEST: This is a media outlet that produces content about the NFL. It merely appears as a watermark and does not affect the video's content. Removing it would not change what happens in the video. Michael Irvin: A former NFL player. He is the subject of the discussion and his career is being referenced. Removing him would change the topic of the video. CeeDee Lamb: A current NFL player. He is mentioned as wearing Michael Irvin's number and is shown in footage. Removing him would change the context of the discussion about the number 88.
