LeGOATski Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 I assume it's more about the story of his upbringing and college career. Ends with him making the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holla83 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 (edited) My only clear memory of this guy was as a Ram. On opening day in 1992 he fielded a punt and was buried by Steve Tasker. My dad and I were at the game. It's a clip they show in nearly every Tasker highlight package. https://youtu.be/0GHtAWiH9BQ Edited July 25, 2018 by holla83 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. WEO Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 "Bit player" is a huge stretch. Guy had a cup of coffee in Buffalo and they are making a movie bout it? Vern Troyer would be a more compelling film.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
