This is a guy who remains impactful despite getting double- and sometimes triple-teamed. This is a guy, a Conyers, Ga. native, who is constantly and consistently active in the community. This is a guy who holds film sessions with his position group outside all regularly scheduled meetings. This is a guy who studies, who will share trade secrets, who will motivate with positivity to help his teammates.
This is a guy who is a captain in every sense of the word.
This is a guy you need while going through a transition period, someone to set the tone in practice, game prep and play. He’ll be the standard bearer for the Falcons as we move forward, a responsibility he has always welcomed with open arms.
He’s they type who, on the field and off, makes the Falcons around him better. That’s worth a ton to this franchise at this current time, as they try to regain the high level of competitiveness lost in recent years.
