Just take a break from your own life, and pretend for a second that you’re Derek Barnett. that’s right. Just like that, you’re the starting defensive end for the Philadelphia Eagles. Imagine what that must feel like.
You were the 14th-overall selection of the 2017 NFL Draft, a selection meeting that took place in, of all cities, the city he would play professional football in. Your career couldn’t have gotten off to a better start. In year one, you win the Super Bowl. Not only that, you were the guy that recovered the fumble after the most famous strip-sack in Super Bowl history.
