Flashbacks of LeRoy Irvin through KP

[Dirigo]

Not saying KP will be the next LeRoy Irvin but when I saw #47 make that interception yesterday with a nice return, I got flashbacks of ol’ LeRoy Irvin. There’s something about a #47 jersey prowling the defensive backfield and making plays for his team. Irvin did just that throughout his career with the Rams. He is my favorite Rams corner of all-time.

kind of looks like him, not fast, avg size, hopefully he has the ball skills thast showed yesterday and can be a solid dime CB for now. Irvin was a late round pick I belueve.... 6th round out of Kansas if i recall correctly.

I saw LeRoy Irvin yesterday too, every time I saw him. He was the one bright spot in what was, otherwise, a pretty dreadful game.

My only concern...he did all his damage in off coverage....very good at reading the QB tho...

Wow, you guys notice the difference in shoulder pads? Are the pads better now or do players just like smaller ones now? Didn't we lose a DB to a collar bone recently?
