During Tuesday’s practice, I walked towards the field on the far end of the facility and strolled past the uprights that represented the target for Justin Tucker. The thunderous boom of his cleat against pigskin’s leather served as a signal that football was in the air, both literally and figuratively.
I watched as the ball tumbled through the sky, splitting the posts perfectly. And then another and another. ESPN’s Jameson Hensley walked by the goalposts just ahead of me as Tucker exclaimed, “Watch out Dr. Jamison!”, mimicking Lamar Jackson’s presser from the day before.
