Banks signed with the Falcons on April 3, 2013, and will participate in Atlanta’s offseason workouts, which begin on April 22. He is competing for a spot on the team at inside linebacker. On August 8, 2013, Banks made his NFL debut in a preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals, where he picked up two tackles.
He will be making tackles, and hopefully a lot of them..........
If I was his Dad or his manager, I would advise him to go into Motivational Speaking. It takes incredible self control not to dump rage on this woman when he met up with her. I wouldn’t trust myself to stay that cool. Today’s football players get Mega-Huge, some close to 7 feet is not unheard of these days. No place for a near 30 year old. Get some endorsements, or offer a good line of products, like George Foreman did to re-invent himself.
Yeah, not nearly as much contact as running back...
