“Savior” is a tough word to use these days. Frankly, it is not fair to anyone. And that includes those bestowing the title to the individual, or more importantly the actual individual him/herself. Whatever the career or situation you are in, to be dubbed a “Savior,” before doing a thing in that arena is daunting.
A once dominating and historically transcendent franchise in the Miami Dolphins, have literally named a “Savior,” when they drafted Alabama Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa in this past April’s NFL Draft.
The metaphorical joy and irony that comes with calling a devout young man a “Savior,” mixed in with the religious experience it feels like to root for this team, brings a combination of all entities together…fans, football player, Franchise.
