The former Cincinnati Bengals defensive tackle has had to endure a lot of personal trials over the past couple of years, but things have turned around for him lately. Recently, he relayed some thoughts and news surrounding his playing career.
When the Bengals drafted defensive tackle Devon Still out of Penn State in the second round of the 2012 NFL Draft, most thought the team had a steal on their hands. He was the reigning Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year, and though his motor was questioned, his athleticism wasn't.
Also sitting in Still's corner was the fact he didn't have to jump into a starting role with Cincinnati--he could learn behind two talented veterans in Geno Atkins and Domata Peko.
