Quote:I dont think it was ever a matter of sucking up his pride. He always has come across as a humble kid who was willing to do what it took to help the team and make the roster. If he has truly overcome his nerve issue, the future looks bright for him. He's quickly and quietly become one of my favorite players.

 

 

Oh, no doubt.  But in the age of divas, it was refreshing to see him come right in and be ready to compete and learn a new position.  He knew straight from the draft that he wasn't going to be a QB.  And, based on his success learning a new position, there was no sulking.  It appears he took it on as a new challenge and grew from it.

 

I agree, he's really making an impression on me as well.  He might very well be one of my favorite players by the end of this season.  Him and Bortle's girlfriend...  Heyooooooooo
