Before the Houston Texans selected him with the first overall pick in 2014, one image stood out when you heard the name Jadeveon Clowney: a flying helmet.
It belonged to Michigan running back Vincent Smith. As it floated through the air during the 2013 Outback Bowl, a transformation took place. Overnight, Clowney turned into a fierce monster who can devour running backs and quarterbacks at will, all before palming the ball as though it was a tiny figurine.
You saw the replay of his hit on Smith for almost every waking moment of your life during the lead-up to the 2014 draft.
