From Training In The Woods To An $80m Payday: The Quinn Meinerz Underdog Story

As someone else who had their senior football season canceled due to COVID-19, it is amazing to see how perseverance shines through. Legit had not put on pads in 14 months and got into the senior bowl because Landon Dickerson got hurt. 

It is amazing to see how this dude has progressed and become the best guard in the NFL. I am not even sure how D1 guys missed him in highschool. Like look at these highlights. 

He doesn't just have highlights either he is just statistically one of the best-run blockers in the league on top of many other stats. 

I just wonder how many super-athletic offensive linemen were a little undersized in high school but grew into their frames and added mass over college that are NFL All-Pro caliber. Like Jason Kelce is another example of a super athletic guy that was overlooked in HS as a RB who became an amazing center.

The guy is not only an amazing run blocker but got an amazing celly. 

He has an amazing power belly that was built in the Canadian wilderness. This is the tape that put him on the map and got him his invite. It's the long 3-minute version that goes to show how athletic of a freak this guy is. 

This dude is lifting heavy shit, moving like a gazelle, swinging axes, hammers, throwing trees, got a rack in the woods. What is there not to like about this dude? Rooting for a fellow D3 baller.
