Patrick Queen has a routine, one he’s had for years. After every football game, he walks out of the locker room and finds his father, Dwayne. The two lock eyes, hug, and without fail, Dwayne asks his son this every single time:
“Tell me which plays you left on the field?”
And Patrick, whose parents describe him as a quiet, humble sort, graciously nods.
“Yeah I know, dad,” he says, “I know.”
Once they get that out of the way, Dwayne tells Patrick everything he did well. This routine has lasted for a decade.
