Turns out Dolphins first-round pick CB Vontae Davis is a low key, no nonsense player. And by that, of course, we mean he talks A LOT of shit on the field.During his college days, Davis became legendary around the Big Ten for his ability to carry on a running conversation through four quarters while making more than his share of big plays...He mentions the side benefit of sometimes getting into receivers' heads, distracting them, but it's more than that. It's the pure joy that radiates from deep within.
"I just like having fun on the field," Davis says. "It's positive. It's something I love doing. I just love playing football."
Vontae is badass and he knows it. I love the fact that he has the sack to show up and just talk shit all the live long day until the opposing receiver explodes into a cloud of dust. When you're a cover corner in the NFL, you have to have the disposition of a comedian to help you forget the last play and look to dominate the next. Looks like Vontae's got that part covered.
I'm a bit of a comedian myself. It takes years to hone and craft my material. But once I get it right, it's gold. Like this timeless gem that never fails to slay: "Those little chihuahua dogs are ridiculous. Yo quiero taco bell! Am I right, people? Wacka-wacka!"
