Curious as to why, but I haven't seen a single player reaction.

Haven’t looked hard enough?

Apparently not.  Searched through twitter.  And wasn't insinuating players weren't happy...just that i didnt know why I couldn't find responses.

"How did they know I was coming, though?"

 

Wuh.....what was his wonderlik score??

 

Eh, whatever....just kill Tom Brady.

I think it was a precut video of them all mashed together not them separately face timing him.

Shreveport? Isn't Ed Oliver from Houston, TX? I read something that said he decided to "stay home" and go to Houston for college ball.

His profiles all have him listed as being from Houston, TX.

Wonder why Tre White would think that? ?

 

EDIT: Also, how big is he? I've seen everywhere from 6-1, 275 up to 6-3, 290.

Tonight, on Unsolved Mysteries...

 

An NFL rookie is shown a video of his teammates greeting him.....very soon after he was drafted.

I guess this is why... https://www.avoyellestoday.com/news-sports/college-football-star-ed-oliver-jr-calls-marksville-home

 

Definitely not accurate to call him a Shreveport product, though...

Raised in Houston but born in Shreveport and his brother knows him apparently.

He was shown it at the draft and there was no guarantee we'd get him plenty of people thought he'd be gone before we got a chance.

Oh, I did not see that...but I agree, to me you're a native of where you were born.

Pretty trivial question to ask, I suppose...but it definitely had me confused.

Thanks for the article!

Twitter reaction: Tre'Davious White was excited to have another Shreveport, Louisiana product on the team. According to a story from a local paper, Oliver was born in Shreveport before the family moved to the Houston area when he was young, but he also spent time in Marksville, Louisiana. Oliver had the inside of his suit jacket emblazoned with an image from Houston, which he called "the greatest place on Earth."

We had already gotten him...

 

What was your wonderlic score... ?

So they had the four of them come in to shoot that video in time to show it to him shortly after drafting him. All I'm saying is it isn't that mystifying for him to be blown away by it.
