“I could barely contain my excitement. I made it. I am on an NFL football team. The team’s first-round draft pick, Todd Lyght, had been a cornerback at Notre Dame, but in a strange coincidence, he’d attended high school at Flint’s Powers Catholic. I noticed him on my flight, but I was pretty sure he didn’t have any idea who I was. I thought back to how I’d written all of those letters to different powerhouse football programs, and Notre Dame was definitely on the list. I looked at him as he sat ...in front of me, sizing him up after every air bump, wondering what exactly made him worth millions of dollars more than me. I scanned the back of his head for any sign of weakness, or any noticeable chink in his armor, so I could somehow increase my value in my own mind. It didn’t matter that we didn’t play the same position, that we both played defense, or that we were on the same team. To me, he was a threat. I knew I had to make an impact immediately if I was going to stay in the NFL.MoreLessRead More Read Less
