Every year as Thanksgiving approaches our family reads a Dr. Seuss book titled “Did I ever tell you how lucky you are?” As I was re-watching the Steelers defense in week 11, I felt Jake Luton earned his own story in that book.
Most of us, at some time in our lives, dreamed about being an NFL quarterback, but I doubt anyone dreamed of a day like the young Mr. Luton faced this past Sunday.
Luton’s day, like most nightmares, started out fine. His first drive resulted in a field goal, and with a completed pass and a first down to start his second drive of the game, he was looking good.
