I was watching the colts vs patriots game a few weeks ago, and there was a player on the patriots team. He was black and his helmet had tinted eye shields. But his face was almost totally blank and expressionless whenever he was on camera, which I thought was pretty interesting. He seemed like he was built more like a lineman (no idea if it was offense or defense). Does anyone have an idea who I’m talking about? ---

Do you at least remember if he was on offense or defense? Edit: oh, sorry, you said you didn’t know. ---

Did he have dreads? If so it was probably BenJarvus Green-Ellis or Laurence Maroney. If not, possibly Sammy Morris. ---
