Peter King's FOOTBALL MORNING IN AMERICA Column Debuted This Morning Exclusively On NBCSports.com

Peter King's new Monday morning NFL column "Football Morning in America" debuted this morning exclusively on NBCSports.com. The first edition of the column included interviews with Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers, Philadelphia Eagles QB and SUPER BOWL MVP Nick Foles, a look at the NFL's officiating shakeup, Tony Romo's next step toward a golfing future, and a new section titled, "What I've Learned" with a football personality talking about life lessons and football, which included a conversation with former New York Giants head coach Ben McAdoo.

Highlights from the first edition of "Football Morning in America" include:

• Rodgers discussing his age, upcoming contract, 'Shark Week' and meeting the Dalai Lama;

o "I'd love to play to 40," Rodgers told King. "I just think that number means a lot. Obviously, Tom [Brady] is kind of rewriting the book. Brett [Favre] had a good season when he turned 40. My goal is be able to move like I do or close to how I do and still be able to do that at 40."

• Romo on golf, his broadcasting career, the balance of both and whether he had thoughts about playing last season;

o "I don't think I ever said that, or thought that," Romo told King. "I think you feel like you can still play-I think everybody when they're done feels that way. But my time has passed. I'm comfortable."

• Foles discussing the possibility of a return to the bench after winning SUPER BOWL MVP;

• And King's thoughts on recent Hall of Fame inductee Terrell Owens, Buffalo Bills RB LeSean McCoy, and DeMarco Murray, who retired over the weekend.

Beginning July 21, King will resume his popular NFL training camp tour, filing his column from the road each Monday, and providing video or written reports from team to team throughout the preseason. His first stop will be to Chicago Bears camp in Bourbonnais, Illinois.
