More information about Final Jeopardy:
In order to spice up the third day of the 2018 NFL Draft, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers announced that a parrot was going to announce the team’s fourth round pick. It was intended to be University of Pittsburgh safety Jordan Whitehead.
However, not all animals have been poor choices; the Indianapolis Colts used an orangutan in the fourth round in 2017.

Interesting that one of the first questions today had a correct response of Dodge City, with an incorrect response given of Tombstone. In yesterday’s Final Jeopardy, the correct response was Tombstone, and two incorrect responses were Dodge City.
