Guys, I need your thoughts tonight...
This is my dog Cooper.
We were walking when he jumped in front of me. I wondered why and then I looked down.
Cooper took a bite from a Copperhead & protected me from it.
We do not deserve dogs
But man, I’m blessed he’s mine.

So...
Today I was let go of my job with The AAF. It is easily the worst moment of my life.
What I saw today will change me forever because I had a relationship with the players.
I’m proud of the work I did. I loved every second.
Thank you all for the support.

Rosen was the first show up everyday this offseason for workouts.
He apparently worked consistently with his OC’s late into the night.
He was sacked 52 times last year as a rookie behind that o-line.
He was told all offseason he’s the guy.
Now imagine being him yesterday.
Listen here..... former NFL legend Steve Smith just carved up Josh Rosen with the truth. Preach! Remember you been warned.

So initial thoughts on

draft:
Houston needed to address four immediate needs:
- Potential franchise QB (C.J. Stroud)
- Upgrade at WR (Tank Dell & Xavier Hutchinson)
- Starting center (Juice Scruggs)
- Franchise cornerstone pass rush (Will Anderson)
Mission complete.

This was IMO the best play from yesterday from the

I want everyone to take a minute a just remember something:

He dealt with so many people calling him a bust before being drafted
His family has watched all this, they’ve earned it.
This is awesome. Look how emotional Josh Allen's mom and dad were at the start of the game. After the game, before running into the locker room, Allen made it a point to go find his family
