Alright Duke! I knew from Day 1 all you needed was a chance. Jugheads Chavis and Steele never gave you one. But, as you said: Dave Aranda did! Call him up. Thank him. And go out and kick some arse. Just not against Da Saints! Congrats and good luck!

He was quick to say "coach Aranda was he best thing that ever happened to me". That is pretty awesome to see how that played out.

It looks like a blonde woman is sitting directly behind him trying to avoid being in the photo.

Happy for Duke. Glad to see he is getting a chance in the pro's and prove Mile's coaching staff was wrong!

I can't wait for him to rough up the Saints. They're dead to me.

Dammit Beavis. I love the kid and wish him the best, but he's a dirty bird now. That sucks.

Hope he can help the Falcons defense kick it up a notch. Their theme needs to be something like Finish the Job this season. Duke, Deborah, Jalen Mills and the other Falcons need to be on a mission to return to the Super Bowl to take care of business and not collapse and give away certain victory like last time.
