Football, one of America’s favorite pastimes from peewee to professional, watching or running the field this sport is notorious. Yet, the multiple injuries players sustain are often glanced over because ‘the show must go on’. Up until 2015, the National Football League (NFL) did not offer any guaranteed assistance to hurt players. However, in the case of Michael Solomon vs. the NFL, Solomon is asking for more than the NFL bargained.

He has size, speed, and hands of an elite receiver. During his time at Ohio State he proved to be a reliable target in crunch time situations. His biggest strengths are his incredible speed off of the line of scrimmage, rate of acceleration, ability to catch the ball in traffic, and out-jump opposing defensive backs.

The Carolina Panthers found themselves a star in Kelvin Benjamin drafting him 28th overall in 2014 draft. We took him 28th overall I think he has already become a steal for the Panthers and Dave Gettleman who is a great evaluator of talent. He took the NFL by storm becoming quarterback Cam Newton's favorite target right away and for good reason; setting Panther rookie records for receptions receiving yards and touchdowns with 79 catches 1008 yards and nine touchdowns.

Philadelphia Eagles fans will always remember Chip Kelly as the arrogant dictator who parted with the likes of DeSean Jackson, LeSean McCoy, Jeremy Maclin, Nick Foles and Evan Mathis. Mathis, of course, went on to win a Super Bowl with the Denver Broncos last season.

As a quarterback one is placed in a position where leadership skills are needed, for Wentz this had come more naturally then people had expected. Although he did not need the title of captain, Wentz had deserved it. He proved that he had skills in which all successful leaders have. Wentz was always fair and constant. He was consistently working hard on and off the field to prove to his team that he was not going to give up. He would consistently motivate his teammates, even after he had injured himself. He was fair in a sense that he did not treat any player differently than the next. He was out to help all of his teammates under any circumstance. Whenever reports would come out about Wentz, his teammates always spoke greatly of him. I have never seen a report released where someone had spoken negatively about him. He was the type of teammate any NFL team would be lucky to have. Teammates would say how selfless Wentz was and how that helped the team to succeed so early on in the season. Teammates also told the press how Wentz’s injury did not stop him from believing that the Eagles could win the Super

Have you ever watched football? Well then you know who Carson Wentz is. He is the quarter back for the Philadelphia Eagles and if you ever watched football then you who he is. Today, I’m going to be speaking about who Carson Wentz is, how he became a football player, and how did his interest in football start.

Russell Wilson has a lot of potential to be a very successfull quarterback in the NFL. He was picked by Seattle in the third round in 2012. He has been playing for Seattle for six years. Wilson is one of the shortest quarterbacks standing at 5 foot 11 in tall. Being that short has a disadvantage, one of them is it’s hard to see over a 6 foot 5 in tall lineman. An advantage to being short is that he is abile to weave in and out of small places better than a taller quarterback. Even though he has that disadvantage it doesn’t stop him from creating big plays. Russell Wilson has competed in two Super Bowls, winning the first one but coming up short in the second one after throwing a pick to the Patriots. The other four years he wasn’t in the

When he went to the NFL the Cardinals drafted him to begin with after his rookie contract was about up the Rams offered him a big contract but he turned it down because the Cardinals were the only team that believed in him.

Williams had a team-high 100 tackles, which ranked fifth in the MIAA and 22nd in the nation. Sixty-three of his tackles were solo stops, and he also had two pass breakups and two forced fumbles.

He is notoriously known as ‘Scam Newton’ because, according to ESPN’s associated press, “The documents indicate Newton's father, Cecil Newton, and ex-Mississippi State player Kenny Rogers sought from $120,000 to $180,000 for the quarterback to sign with the Bulldogs out of junior college but didn't ask any other school for money.” Well, this has since gone in along with the other skeletons Newton holds in his closet. On the other hand, Russell Wilson; a man who has earned everything he has wanted in life. He played for the minor league team of the Colorado Rockies, they are better known as the Tri-City Dust Devils. He was drafted out of college after having a stellar career at North Carolina University as the starting quarterback, but after leaving the university for baseball he lost his starting job and was left to start over again at a different university. He was heavily favored to attend, coincidentally, the Alma mater of Cam Newton, the University of Auburn. Russell chose to attend the University of Wisconsin, On Wisconsin! He had to fight for his position and became a captain of the team within 3 months of being with the
