Jaycee Horn knows his way around an NFL locker room. The son of former NFL receiver Joe Horn has been wanting to follow in his dad’s footsteps since he was a little boy. Now, he will get the opportunity to make a name for himself. As a true freshman at South Carolina in 2018, Horn started 10 of 11 games and had 45 tackles with 2 sacks and was named……
Zaven Collins burst onto the scene nationally for the Tulsa Golden Hurricanes in 2020 but if you ask people around the program, they would tell you he has been a force for two plus years. At 6-4 260, Collins was a do it all, three down linebacker in the Golden Hurricanes 3-3 Stack defense. He could rush the passer, cover in man or zone and play in space. He finished……
In our first of sixty player profiles over the next sixty days, we will take a look at at Alabama quarterback Mac Jones. The junior quarterback reminds me of Tom Brady in several ways. No. I am not comparing him to Brady or implying he is going to be the next Tom Brady. I am simply saying that there are similarities in their road to the NFL. By his own……
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported yesterday that linebacker Dont’a Hightower, safety Patrick Chung and offensive tackle Marcus Cannon all plan on playing in 2021. From NFL Now: The #Patriots are getting the band back together, with key opt-outs opting back in… Meanwhile, it's far more uncertain for WR Julian Edelman. pic.twitter.com/Uu2dXjTznU — Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) February 26, 2021 On the surface, that is great news as the Patriots clearly missed…
Cam Newton and Bill Belichick have a great deal of respect for each other. How do I know? Cam Newton said so. Appearing on the I Am An Athlete Podcast last weekend, Newton told a panel of former players including Fred Taylor and Chad Ocho Cinco (whom both played for the Patriots) that Bill Belichick is the most misunderstood guy in the NFL. Newton referred to Belichick as a “cool…
Many Patriots pundits and fans alike have speculated that Bill Belichick does not value the quarterback position. I am not sure I would go that far. I think he does but there is a pattern of addressing the position in his history which could shed some light into how he will address the position this off-season. Here are three observations I have made about Belichick and how he addresses the……
It is still relatively early in the pre-draft process but it is never too early to figure out what the Patriots will do at quarterback. At this moment, they technically only have one quarterback on the roster and that is Jarrett Stidham. It is safe to say that Stidham is not the quarterback of the future and chances are, that is not going to change. So, where does Bill Belichick……
Image courtesy of the New England Patriots Tom Brady winning the Super Bowl last night was a bad look for the Patriots from a P.R standpoint. Sure, the organization tweeted out congratulating Brady and Rob Gronkowski but make no mistake about it. The Patriots have egg on their face after letting Brady walk last spring. Truth be told, no one thought the Buccaneers would win the Super Bowl in Brady’s…
Former Patriots wide receiver Danny Amendola referred to former Patriots quarterback and teammate Tom Brady as the driving force behind the “Patriot Way.” "When you see the 'Patriot Way' in the dictionary, it’s got Tom Brady’s picture next to it. None of those coaches caught any passes. … Tom Brady is the 'Patriot Way.' That’s why he’s in the Super Bowl & the Patriots aren’t." — @DannyAmendola pic.twitter.com/XtVd0ntJPc — First…
The Senior Bowl kicks off today at 2 pm on NFL Network. Here are 10 prospects that fit the Patriot Way that the organization will be keeping a close eye on. 1. Jaime Newman, QB Wake Forest (American): Newman transferred to Georgia after the 2019 season but opted out due to COVID-19. Newman has terrific size at 6-4 230. He has plus arm strength and is accurate vertically. He must……
