    In this episode of Real Ones: The League, presented by Experian, you will see:

    San Francisco 49ers All-Pro linebacker Fred Warner sits down with a true master of the wide receiver position, Cooper Kupp. Fresh off his second Super Bowl victory—this time with the Seattle Seahawks—the Triple Crown winner and Super Bowl MVP joins Fred for a deep dive into the "ultimate mental chess match" that defines the NFC West.

    Cooper opens up about the "scars" of his NFL journey and the unwavering belief required to go from a third-round pick out of Eastern Washington to an NFL legend. He provides an exclusive look at the Sam Darnold Resurrection, detailing how Darnold overcame being written off by the league to lead Seattle to a championship by mastering the Shanahan system and finally "letting it rip". Kupp also breaks down the next generation of elite wideouts, explaining why Puka Nacua was a "refined caveman" during his first OTAs and how Jaxon Smith-Njigba is reinventing route-running by playing at one level with "no tell".

    The conversation takes a personal turn as Fred Warner discusses his "gruesome" Week 6 ankle injury. For the first time, Fred reveals the internal team discussions regarding whether he would ever play football again and the relentless, optimistic mindset he used to push for a miraculous return in the NFC Championship game.

    Finally, the two look ahead to the future of the rivalry, featuring a live FaceTime cameo from reigning MVP Matthew Stafford in the Experian Call Your BFF segment. They discuss Stafford’s "superpower" of mental recall and the return of the "ferocious" Dre Greenlaw to the 49ers, promising a 2026 season that will be "awful and annoying" for opposing offenses.

  • Patrick Willis & Fred Warner: Breaking the 49ers Tackle Record & Knowing When to Walk Away | EP 8
    Mar 12 2026

    Send a text

    In this episode of Real Ones: The League, presented by Experian, you will see:

    San Francisco 49ers Hall of Fame Linebacker Patrick Willis joins All-Pro Fred Warner for a legendary meeting of the minds. From the small-town roots in Tennessee to becoming the "Terminator" of the NFL, Patrick Willis opens up about the "Gladiator" mindset required to dominate the linebacker position. He reflects on the high-pressure pregame speeches of the Harbaugh era and the internal battle of knowing when to finally hang up the cleats at the age of 30.

    In this deep dive, Willis reveals the specific "Welcome to the NFL" moment during his first training camp where Mike Singletary pushed him to the brink . The two discuss the evolution of the game, the fear Willis instilled in opponents, and the legendary battles against "Beast Mode" Marshawn Lynch. Patrick also breaks down the terrifying hit from a Washington fullback in 2013 that left him questioning how much more his body could take.

    Finally, we address the 49ers franchise history books. Fred Warner reveals the heartbreak of being just five tackles away from breaking Patrick Willis’s all-time record before suffering a season-ending injury.

    Plus, Patrick shares his honest thoughts on the Mike Evans signing, Max Crosby’s rescinded trade to Baltimore, and why it took five years for him to finally get the Hall of Fame call.

  • Kyle Hamilton & Puka Nacua: Playing with Derrick Henry & Why Stafford is the MVP | EP 7
    Feb 7 2026

    Send us a text

    In this episode of Real Ones: The League, presented by Experian, you will see:

    Baltimore Ravens All-Pro Safety Kyle Hamilton and Los Angeles Rams All-Pro Wide Receiver Puka Nacua join San Francisco 49ers All-Pro Linebacker Fred Warner for a raw, unfiltered conversation from the EA Sports Madden NFL booth at Super Bowl Media Center. From the disappointment of the Ravens' season to the high-powered energy of the Rams' #1 scoring offense, these superstars open up about the mindset required to dominate at the highest level.

    Kyle Hamilton breaks down his role as a "Swiss Army knife" on the Ravens' defense and what it's like playing alongside future Hall of Famer Derrick Henry. Meanwhile, Puka Nacua reacts to teammate Matthew Stafford winning the MVP and how the addition of Davante Adams transformed the Rams into a scoring machine.

    In this episode, we dig into the upcoming Super Bowl LX matchup between the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks. Kyle and Puka analyze the "explosive" offense of the Patriots led by Drake Maye and the elite Seattle defense coached by Mike Macdonald. Kyle shares his Top 3 NFL Safeties—giving flowers to Nick Edwards, Derwin James, and Jalen Pitre—and tells a legendary story about being asked to sign a six-month-old baby’s forehead with a Sharpie in college.

    Plus, we get a funny moment when Kyle FaceTimes his "BFF" Tony Jefferson on the golf course and Puka attempts a "BFF" call to Davante Adams. Puka also sends a heartfelt message to Cooper Kupp ahead of the big game.

    Finally, Fred Warner opens up about his own path from a third-round pick to an All-Pro and his grueling recovery from a major ankle injury. He reflects on balancing new fatherhood with the grind of the NFL and looks ahead to the 2026 season, including the historic matchup against the Rams in Australia.
