That's a great attitude. Sounds like a great role model for younger athletes.
Keep pushing. Your time will come.

Man was that pass catch gorgeous. Toe tapped like a pro.

That was his second TD

I’m really happy for Jontre. It looks like he’s gonna get a little playing time this year and I bet he’s pumped about it. He could probably start at WR or possibly DB at a lesser school.

That back-of-the-end-zone TD on a dead run was Big League.

Jontre can be this years version of Mr. Jefferson ?? Keep workin fella because no one else wants to step up to the plate ????

I respect Kirklin’s determination and so excited for him. I hope this springboards him into a long and successful NFL career. But JJ had well established himself earlier (more than 1 season). He didn’t “breakout” in 2019.

Russell Gage is a better comparison

That looked like la'el Collins out in front.

C’mon Larry...Mrs. Tarantino taught you that bursted is not a word...it’s burst/burst/burst (present/past/past participle).

You should know better...

...but worsted is worse than bursted, unless it's wool butt.

Awesome fricking story. I hope he continues to rise from here.

Man TDP whiffed on that block. Thankfully Brennan had already thrown the pass.

One more year! One more year!

Damn that’s true. I forgot they everyone has an extra year added. He’s well suited for it. Marshall will leave after this season I assume and this kid have a shot at being a legit #1.

Happy for him. He was very patient. Happy to see him get his shot to play. Keep producing like that and they can't take you off the field.

The past tense of burst is burst, not bursted (which is not a real word).
