Willie Snead was just a guy trying to make a name for himself in training camp four months ago.
He didn’t know where or how he was going to fit in. Heading into the preseason, his stated goal was to simply continue building his name and score a touchdown. He just wanted a spot on the 53-man roster and the opportunity to try to hold onto it throughout the season.
Not only has he accomplished those goals, he’s performed so well he is now on a new mission, one that no one — not even Snead — could imagine possible back in August.
