Devlin Hodges: I ‘Never Never, Never Once Thought’ I Didn’t Belong In NFL

The Pittsburgh Steelers are 2-0 in game in which Devlin Hodges started. I’m not sure if that or the fact that he has started multiple games is the more remarkable story of the 2019 season. The undrafted rookie out of Samford was never supposed to be on the roster in the first place, though he wasn’t long out of the organization after the team traded Joshua Dobbs a week into the season.

He went from unemployed to practice squad to third-string quarterback in a matter of weeks, then a couple weeks later made his NFL debut, then his first start due to injury.
