In the midst of describing his latest international journey – this time to PyeongChang, South Korea, for the 2018 Winter Olympics -- Redskins tight end Vernon Davis is interrupted by quarterbacks coach and passing game coordinator Kevin O’Connell, who spots him by the stairwell in the team facility and welcomes him back to Ashburn.
“I’m pumped!” O’Connell says.
“About what?” Davis replies.
“The curling!” he exclaims. “I watched it for three hours the other night.”
This is now a common expression for Davis to hear (especially this week as the men’s team will compete for the gold medal after beating Canada on Thursday).
