I get it. I’m not alone in getting it. There are millions of us out there.
Like me, Seattle Seahawks cornerback DeAndre Elliott grew up with a dream to pay off his mother’s hard work with a house. I’m not there yet, but within the last year, Elliott has accomplished his dream to the point of being able to give back to his mom with a new home.
Elliott was an undrafted free agent out of Colorado State, but it was not hard to see why the Seahawks had an eye on him: 6’1, 32” arms, 41” vertical, 10’5 broad, 6.
