Grayson Bradford III QB
The Mustaches

Grayson Bradford III, formerly of the Roughnecks: 106 yards. He was asked about it and said it was just another game. He is 28 now, which was most of the argument at the time. The fixture comes round again next year.

He has 1,934 yards from scrimmage in six seasons, and thirty touchdowns. He has never had a year like it. Two of those shirts belong to somebody else now.

He is from Detroit, Michigan. Around the building he is the one the young players actually ask. Nobody planned any of it. He was cut twice before his twenty-fourth birthday.

The Mustaches are 4-4 through nine weeks. Silas Beale is in year fifteen of it. He is out of contract after this.

One more thing: he never takes his helmet off between series.
