In the NFL, one man's misfortune is another man's opportunity.
With Deone Bucannon Customized Football Jerseys still recovering from ankle surgery, first-round draft pick Haason Reddick is playing with the starters at inside linebacker for the Arizona Cardinals.
The lessons have been invaluable, he said, particularly because he lines up alongside 14-year NFL veteran Karlos Dansby.
"It means a lot, just being able to be out there with Karlos," Reddick said. "It means the most because I see the way he takes charge of the huddle, how he commands the defense. For a guy to be in the league for 14 years, that's where I want to be, a 14-year vet. I want to be able to take command of the defense when it's my time to come."
Cardinals coaches love the versatility they see in Reddick, a 6-foot-1, 235-pounder out of Temple who was drafted 13th overall.
"Unbelievable athlete, extremely serious about it," coach Bruce Arians custom jerseys said. "Over-serious as a matter of fact, too conscientious, but when he turns it loose, it's extremely impressive to watch."
Reddick acknowledges he's easing into his role, trying
to learn the intricacies of the job.
"I've been I would say a little throttled down because I'm not trying to make so many mistakes," he said. "I'm trying to learn as much as I can. Once you know what you're supposed to do, when you really know, that's when you can let loose."
It's essentially a hybrid inside linebacker position, where sometimes he focuses on stopping the run and at other times finds himself in pass coverage. The Cardinals also eventually want him to play some on the edge because of his pass-rushing skills.
It's a position that sees a lot of action. Bucannon led the team in tackles two seasons ago.
"I love it because a lot of the defense, it depends on me," Reddick said. "I'm customized jerseys depended on in the run game as well as the passing game. It's a really special thing and I'm glad that I'm there."
