Jaylinn Hawkins has been through a lot in just two short years as an NFL player.
He was drafted at the onset of the pandemic; his head coach and general manager were relieved of their duties five games into his rookie season; the entirety of his position group changed during his first offseason, and he’s learned a new scheme that by all accounts is pretty complex.
Nevertheless, Hawkins navigated that turbulence and emerged on the other side with a great mindset entering Year 3.
“I’m working day in and day out, really just trying to win the day,” Hawkins explained when he joined me on the Bleav in Falcons podcast.
