When your nickname is “The Mayor,” people know to respect you. At least they should.
It’s not by happenstance that Joe Dineen has that moniker. The undrafted linebacker from the University of Kansas plays with that mindset anytime he steps on the gridiron. It’s the approach he takes to prepare on the practice field, meetings or weight room. Since Dineen went undrafted, you can bet that attitude is how he’ll try to earn his spot on the Denver Broncos roster.
“I think there’s one way to play football — as hard as you can no matter what the score is,” Dineen told 1st & 10 @ 10 in May, adding that his parents instilled a “don’t quit” mentality in him at a young age.
