ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — The words are a constant reminder.
And in some ways, they’re also an act of defiance.
Jalin Marshall refuses to be what you expect.
Instead, the Jets’ rookie receiver/return man is dead set on shattering the limits of everyone else’s expectations.
“Sleep on me, that’s my motivation. #blessed”
The words, which are pinned to Marshall’s official Twitter page, are a glimpse into who he is at his core. And they’re a message to all of the non-believers who have crossed his path.
“All my life, I’ve gone through everyone doubting me, not thinking I’m going to make it, thinking I’m not ready or capable enough,” Marshall told Newsday after a recent practice.
