Dad’s Take on Donovan Jackson

Look at this kid posing like he's already conquered the NFL when he hasn't even played a snap yet! Standing there all serious with his hands on his hips like he's the second coming of John Hannah, but those pristine gloves tell me he's never gotten his hands dirty in a real game. Sure, Daniel Jeremiah thinks he can "mow people," but right now the only thing he's mowing is the team's salary cap with that 24th overall pick price tag!
