Jake Bequette may not be a career politician, but if the online video he posted to announce his bid for Congress is any indication, he already knows how to fudge the truth to tell a good story.
In listing his qualifications for the U.S. Senate, the former Arkansas Razorback and NFL player told potential voters he won a Super Bowl with the New England Patriots.
What he didn’t mention was that he didn’t play in the Super Bowl — or even a single playoff game. In fact, the former 2012 third-round pick only appeared briefly in eight regular season games during his two-year career.
