His maturing as a person has been interesting to watch. I stumbled across a Q&A session he did years ago in front of a live audience. His hair was close-cropped, so I suspect he was much younger. Maybe early in his career. His personality was down right charming as he schmoozed the audience. He exuded charisma. He actually looks smaller now as if he has lost weight. I suspect the injuries, the weird off season, being the last kid picked on the playground, the insultingly low price point he is playing for, the stress of playing for NE, following a GOAT and losing in a town conditioned on winning is takings its toll.
