"Right when I saw those jerseys, it reminded me of Cam just the energy he brought. You know, so much emotion out there, probably needs to show more. But times when I do, yeah, it's just a fun loving position.""He plays the position in a different way than a lot of people do, and the guys around him rallied around him. I had another one late, I think in the third or fourth, I had a safety one-on-one. I know Cam probably would have took him on and tried to score. So yeah, I got to meet him through the process. I'm a big fan. He was my favorite player growing up, so pretty cool."In the second quarter of the game, the Patriots were in the lead by just one point (7-6 scoreline).
