Dad’s Take on Jalen Carter

Look at this kid posing like he's about to ask someone to prom instead of rushing the quarterback! Sure, Haason Reddick says he's got great work ethic, but I'm seeing more "rated rookie" photo shoot than "rated menace to offensive lines." Back in my day, defensive tackles looked like they ate quarterbacks for breakfast, not like they were worried about messing up their manicure!

About Jalen Carter

JALEN CARTER One of the nastiest defensive linemen in the league, Carter blows up plays at the snap. He creates separation by giving blockers a jolt before ripping past to drop a running back in the backfield or chase down the passer. He notched 2.0 sacks and seven QB hits in the playoffs for the Super Bowl champion Eagles.
