The girl curse will come up and bite him. I know he's getting serious in a relationship and the success of that relationship will spell the demise of his football career. This manifests it's self time and time again on ALL levels of sports. Rory Mcllroy was World #1 golfer and then he got serious with tennis star Caroline Wozniacki and his game suffers BIG time. After she goes crazy he calls off the engagement and rockets to the top again. That is ONE of many many many examples.. including our own Jake Heaps who after his Freshman year was looking great until he fell in love and never recovered.
Either you get married before you start on a football team e.g. Taysom Hill or you should wait until you retire from football, e.g. Steve Young.
