Earlier this month, Dwayne Allen was watching his alma mater win a second national championship in three years. Three weeks later, he is in Atlanta trying to help the New England Patriots win a record-tying sixth Super Bowl.
Allen and the Patriots will play the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl LIII at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Kickoff is set for 6:30 p.m. on CBS.
“It is an exciting time. There are a lot of greats that don’t get to play in this game, so for me to have a second opportunity at it in my second year with this organization, I am just very, very fortunate,” Allen said to WSPA’s Todd Summers earlier this week.
