To say that Jesus Ferreira had a special season in 2021 may be an understatement. In most years, a player that scored eight goals and added in nine assists would have been in discussions for team MVP, if not somewhat in the running for league MVP*.
After a pretty tough 2020 campaign that saw him struggle to find his footing with just one goal and one assist, Ferreria regrouped and became one of the league’s best young players in the process.
* While it was a drastically different league in 2010, his dad, David Ferreira won the league MVP award with eight goals and 13 assists, so Jesus wasn’t that far away from his dad’s best season in a Dallas uniform.
