Lothar Posted July 25, 2018 Posted July 25, 2018 Very cool story from a bit player during the Super Bowl years. https://theathletic.com/443869/2018/07/24/catching-up-with-vernon-turner-as-his-life-story-gets-the-hollywood-treatment/
LeGOATski Posted July 25, 2018 Posted July 25, 2018 I assume it's more about the story of his upbringing and college career. Ends with him making the NFL.
holla83 Posted July 25, 2018 Posted July 25, 2018 (edited) My only clear memory of this guy was as a Ram. On opening day in 1992 he fielded a punt and was buried by Steve Tasker. My dad and I were at the game. It's a clip they show in nearly every Tasker highlight package. https://youtu.be/0GHtAWiH9BQ Edited July 25, 2018 by holla83 1
eball Posted July 25, 2018 Posted July 25, 2018 I wish I could say I remembered Vernon Turner but I don't. Still, pretty cool story.

I remember that play almost as much as any other in my Bills watching history.

Mr. WEO Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 "Bit player" is a huge stretch. Guy had a cup of coffee in Buffalo and they are making a movie bout it? Vern Troyer would be a more compelling film....
