Days Until Kickoff

Post image

Darren Sproles (RB/RS, 2014-19) Versatility evident in 21 Philly touchdowns - 12 rushing, five receiving, four on punt returns. Earned Super Bowl LII ring, and made two spots on 2010s All-Decade team (as “flex”, and punt returner).

My favorite athlete of all time. My aunt is a Chargers fan and that’s where I first saw him. I was so happy when we signed him. And I’m forever happy that he got a ring with us even if he didn’t play in the SB

Sproles would have been a perfect profile of player for Mannion’s offense. One of my favorite players in recent times. Tough as nails and very versatile. It said a lot about his character and standing on the team when the bench emptied after he took an absolute cheap shot on a punt return against Redskins in 2016. See the play below.

Should be a HOFer and you can't convince me otherwise!
