Turbines
You see this two or three times a decade. A meniscus at 23.7, and the player you knew is a player you remember. He is only 23.7, which is the one thing working in his favour.
He has 2,282 yards from scrimmage in two seasons, and twenty-one touchdowns. This is the best of them.
He turned twenty-four this year. He is from Newark, New Jersey. He says almost nothing and is listened to anyway. The route here: a basketball player until he was twenty, and it still shows.
Turbines, 11-6, and eighteen weeks gone. Duke Gravelle is in year fourteen of it.
He keeps his father's work gloves in his locker, and always has.
