As Team USA's Honorary Captain, Vernon Davis Promotes Curling
We’re just one year away from the 2018 Winter Olympics, which means Redskins tight end Vernon Davis is just one year away from travelling to South Korea.
That’s because, since 2010, when the Olympics were held in Vancouver, Davis was named an honorary captain for Team USA Curling, serving as more of brand ambassador to help promote the sport and gain curling more exposure within the United States.
“I love the sport of curling because it’s just you and the stone and the broom,” Davis told ABC News and ESPN’s The Undefeated in a video interview. “You have to have a still mind, a calm mind. Just like anything else, like when it comes to football. The mindset has to be still.”
