Last year's show presented lots of drama and viral moments with the New York Giants featured, including the saga of the team losing Saquon Barkley during free agency.

This year, as many as 20 teams could be in the running to be featured on the program after there was a rules change as to which ones could appear on Hard Knocks.

There are still three major stipulations, including that teams cannot be featured if they have a first-year head coach, if they've been on the in-season edition of the program or appeared on the Training Camp show in the last eight years.
