I have been blessed to be around some truly incredible teammates this season, and I have seen some of the incredibly kind words written about me, so it is time for me to return the favour. Norfolk's rookie defensive end Sam Roes deserves, at the very least, to be in consideration for performance of the season. During his very first game, travelling to the west coast, to Portland and delivering five tackles for loss is an absolutely insane statline that I doubt will be topped any time soon. This becomes even more impressive when one takes into consideration the fact that during last season, there were four players who got four tackles for losses. Across the fifty-six games of the last season, there were only seven games where a player even came close to achieving four tackles for losses. Moreover, with regards to season twenty-three, the tackle for losses leader achieved nineteen over fourteen games. To reach a quarter of that within only one game is a ridiculous feat and testament to Roes' abilities and dedication to this league. Ultimately, whilst I do want my players to win all the awards, I feel like Roes has set himself up for a great season, a likely pro bowl slot and almost definitely getting his name on the ballot for performance of the year.
