I said awhile back that I would explain the Jesse Newman situation if he ended up traded to the lions.
He started yesterday so I thought I should fill up on humble pie.
He injured himself 2 times before preseason and really lost motivation. The first injury was he tweaked his back lifting. Then as he was recovering from that, the second occurred. He hurt his shoulder carrying a backpack on a hiking trip. So combine those with his attitude of not wanting to go through his 3rd camp injured and not really being a passionate pro. He has the talent and the opportunity, but he is the type to want to be doing something else.
Whether that's due to his injury history, or his lack of contract extension I don't understand why he would handle the situation this way. But he got what he wanted and that was to be home. He's happy now and that's what counts. His team is yesterday's news and ours is facing the nation, that's what counts to the red and white nation. Myself included...
Hell of a day yesterday, can't believe the Lulay TD on the last play of the game.
Go REd and White.
