FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Where did Brenden Schooler come from?
The question has been reverberating across the NFL since the New England Patriots’ 24-17 loss to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday night -- and it has a double meaning.
Schooler sprinted from a rare outside position to block Jason Sanders’ 49-yard field goal attempt in the third quarter -- a sensational effort on a unique play that had many wondering how he did it and how the special teams scheme came about.
As a result of the play, Schooler’s profile has been raised to a new level -- he's in his second NFL season after attending Oregon, Arizona and finally Texas.
