Damien
Today’s the day. I haven’t been this nervous since I stepped foot on the field
as a rookie in my first professional football game. It’s not because I don’t
trust my abilities. My ability to play the game of football is why I was
drafted, coming out of college. I was offered a contract, where not only
were they paying me a good sum of money, but the signing bonus was just
as big.
When I moved from the Arizona team to New York’s, I knew I
wasn’t going to be their starting Tight End. They already had Nelson, one of
the best in the league. Don’t get me wrong, I get plenty of playing time. The
reason I was brought on was because Nelson is getting older. They know
that within the next few years, he will be retiring. They wanted a tight end
that was already part of the team to replace him.
According to the statistics, I am one of the better tight ends in the league.
The other tight ends in the league are good, but if you compare stats, I am
ahead of them by huge margins. I spent years perfecting my game, But I
also make sure that my teammates on the field have the best from me,
whether it’s to be an extra blocker, or to receive and run. Heck, I hadn’t
known how versatile the tight end position actually was until my high
school coach informed me that I was built for the position.
If I close my
eyes and think back, I can still hear his voice. “Shaw, you would make this
team a damn fine quarterback, but so would a few others on the team. What
this team needs is a player with your speed, your excellent pair of hands,
the ability to read the movement of just not the defenders in front of you but
all of them and the size to block defensive linemen as an extra lineman
when needed, so I’m moving you to tight end.” I had gone home after
practice that day, my feelings hurting a little cause, of course, like every
young man. Being quarterback was the golden position on a team.
God, the
next time I run into Coach Federman while I’m visiting Sandy Cove, I’m
going to thank him. I would never have gotten any interest from colleges
and sure wouldn’t have my NFL career if I had stayed in the quarterback
position. I owe him more than he knows.
After last week’s game, I was informed that Nelson would be out for the
remainder of the season. I still cringe when I think back about the play that
ended up putting Nelson on the team’s long term injured list. The entire
stadium had to have heard the pop from the dislocation of his knee.
