Does the above photo have anything to do with the prospect of Terrell Suggs playing fullback against the Jets on Sunday night? I guess it’s possible. The shirt is obviously classic Bart Scott, who plays for the Jets. It would also stand to reason that a linebacker would be excited to play some offense and potentially get their hands on the football. The infamously outspoken Suggs compared the potential of him playing fullback to his being a play-maker like LeBron James.
“I am a defensive football player, so I only understand defense,” Suggs said. “What I do know is that [offensive coordinator] Cam [Cameron] is working me in on offense, getting some fullback — a little something to just try to get the ball in my hands. Like King James [the nickname for Miami Heat forward LeBron James], you get the ball in my hands, good things happen — with the exception of the [NBA] Finals. It’s cool. We’re working on something.”
Is that a shot at LeBron or a compliment? Sounds like both. One thing we can say about the “Can’t Wait” shirt is at least it’s harmless — unlike this Steelers shirt Suggs once wore.
