Had no clue about all the stuff he went through as a young man, losing his brother at 14, dealing with racial stuff at NJ. I don't know how someone like him stays so humble, if I had a 15th of his talent I'd be running my mouth!

Regardless of the quality of the article or where it came from, I think it's interesting that Woodson and Bush, 2 former Heisman Trophy winners (say what you will about how Reggie had his repoed, he still did the amazing things on the field to garner that attention and praise), have reached out to him. So many of our rival fan bases want to discount his skills or accomplishments or insist that he's overrated. This pretty much cements the fact that they are being petty and bitter. To use a couple cliché's, game recognize game or real recognize real. Jabrill Peppers is a once in a generation talent and has earned every bit of the recognition and
praise that has come his way. No matter how irritated you get when the announce crew mentions the umpteen positions he plays, each broadcast.
