(S22) - Ultimus Week

[lamboalfredo]

7) In the first two years of Donatello Arrabiata's career, Donatello has made significant improvements and continues to show great potential to be a star in the NSFL. In his rookie season, Donatello's stats were much lower than expectations. Despite being coveted as a top tight end prospect, Donatello compiled just 320 yards and one touchdown. The one touchdown coming in the very first game of the season. Donatello would not see the end zone the rest of the year. Donatello struggled mightily during his rookie season, battling with dropped passes and missed blocks. Donatello had a hard time adjusting to the playbook and no longer became a big part of the Royals' offense. The low numbers led to Donatello sliding to the 7th round to the Philadelphia Liberty. The Liberty opted to have Donatello stay in the DSFL another year to improve. The extra year was just what Donatello needed. Donatello went into the season with high personal expectations. He expected to double all of his stats from his rookie season. Donatello's second season was a tale of two halves. Although matching all of his rookie season's stats, completing 32 catches, 300 yards, and two touchdowns, Donatello showed little progress. Donatello continued to struggle with drops; a problem he had in his rookie season. Mid-way through the season, Donatello maxed out his TPE totals. Something must've clicked because Donatello exploded over the last eight games, including playoffs. He became Colby Jack's main target, which helped him compile 42 catches, 440 yards, and four touchdowns. In the playoffs, Donatello continued to shine and scored the game-tying touchdown against the Minnesota Grey Ducks. In overtime, Donatello had two big catches to set up the game-winning field goal and a trip to the Ultimini.
Donatello finished the season, including playoffs, with 74 catches, 740 yards, and six touchdowns, which doubled all of his totals from his rookie season. The big season helped Donatello receive three game balls and has Donatello as a top choice for Tight End of the Year. After having such a tremendous season, the Philadelphia Liberty, opted to call up Donatello and have him join their team for the S23 season. Expectations will be extremely high with Philadelphia Liberty's high turnover. The Liberty have plans to heavily include Donatello in their offense. Donatello hopes to continue improving on his totals from the DSFL and help the Liberty get to the Ultimus.
