The Story We open with a couple dressed for an event in their Beverly Hills hotel, when they come across what they believe is a stray dog. But it's no dog, it's a beast on the hunt. The couple escape -- barely -- but the housekeeper down the hall is shredded amongst the clean linens. CUT TO: NFL week 2 opener at SoFi stadium, fresh out of rehab back up QB, John Perry is called in after the starting QB (and reigning SB champ) is injured badly at the top of the 2nd quarter, and John Perry stuns everyone. Dual threat? Forget it; as a punter that can also run - he's a triple threat. Commentators remark how rare that is and hope he can lay off the drugs. John Perry takes a beating his first couple of plays - someone gets in his face and calls him out and his adrenaline unleashes a rush of endorphins and more - the snap - the play clock running down, no one will give him an opening to throw - he runs it a 40-yard touchdown run! THE FANS ARE ON THEIR FEET! Perry is the game hero. And he skyrockets to fame. Media speculates he wasn't expected to play and therefore not drug tested. A popular female reporter, pushes her way into John's path on the field and into his life. The short conversation quickly leads to a question about his past and we see how not too long ago he was sent to rehab. At rock bottom with is addiction, he almost commits suicide when his family to come in and send him off to rehab - in Brazil - where he can't get one of his friends to bail him out. While in rehab he and his fellow"patients" sneak to a Monk commune in the mountains and are attacked by a vicious creature, only John and a female hip-hop star survive. John wakes up back in Los Angeles after being in a coma, his right side took the brunt of the attack.

Whick brings us back to the celebration after the game where John hosts a party at his beachfront estate. Celebrities and teammates have a blast, even Figgy Lee shows up to congratulate him. But no press is allowed. This is a good thing because after a mysterious phone call, John has Manfred evacuate the party and John disappears downstairs to his panic room and the beast emerges. The next day John visits his therapist and complains of nightmares about a werewolf -- he's in complete denial. In the meantime, media tries to make a big deal of the mayhem in Malibu and John's agent steers the conversation to his amazing gameplay, which has also caught the attention of an investigative reporter at the same station Karen works. He knows that John's stats are humanly impossible and intends to prove it, and he tries to convince Karen to help. Things really get hairy when John stops at a convenience store after a late practice and he transforms inside the store -- killing a young clerk and his girlfriend. Enter our detectives; they are unaware what killed the young couple, but they do find John's NFL ID on the scene and question him. From here on out, they have to navigate the politics of engaging a local celebrity hero with the deep pockets of the NFL and support of the public, and solving a series of brutal murders. The escalation also draws the attention of the monks from the commune, who try to convince John to come back with them, they have learned to control the tranformative phase of becoming a werewolf, and Interpol authorities who are investigating the death of a scientist in Italy, who John recently vistited.
