130 yards, and a road nobody would recommend

Chip Nutbeam, hot take

Milo Jeffries Jr. QB
Grackles

Milo Jeffries Jr. had 130 yards. He was drafted on a medical gamble that three clubs would not take. He is 22, and he is the one the young players actually ask. It counts the same as anybody else's.

1,142 yards over his first season. Eighteen touchdowns. Sixteen games.

He is from Oakland, California.

Grackles, 4-10, and fifteen weeks gone. Quinton Underhill is in year eight of it.

Jeffries Jr. has a rule about not reading anything written about him, which he breaks.

This feature ran in the paper in week 15 of 1985. The rest of the season is there too.
