Dear Jabrill Peppers,
I remember the day we drafted you. I even took a picture of it because I was so excited that the Browns just drafted the “safety” from Michigan, Jabrill Peppers. The reason I say “safety’ is because you literally played every position on the field besides place holder, kicker, and punter on the Michigan Wolverines team, and you were a beast at it. You destroyed teams, so when I saw you get drafted to my team I screamed inside the Buffalo Wild Wings I was watching at (shout out to the Fort Dodge Buffalo Wild Wings). I will say though, you didn’t leave the same reputation with the Browns as you did the Wolverines, but I think that is mostly because they made you just a safety and special teams player. But, just because you didn’t exactly the replicate the player you were in college in the pros doesn’t mean you weren’t a fucking DAWG.
I mean, my gosh Jabrill. You were a headhunter in the safety position. Whenever there was an opposing wide receiver open down field, I knew that it was okay because most of the time you would fucking smoke the shit out of them from literally out of nowhere. Were the hits sometimes flagged? Of course, because that is the NFL we live in; but man, you destroyed deep threats and that will be something I miss about you dearly Jabrill.
You didn’t have many INTs, which is a shame, but you did block passes. I can say you weren’t ever a casualty and were a solid player at your position on our defense. I will also say that you also improved so much this year as compared to your rookie season it was amazing to see; I can only imagine what you will do next year. Unfortunately you will be playing at MetLife instead of First Energy and will be a part of the G-Men instead of the DAWG POUND.
I will cherish the memories I do have of you Jabrill, like you picking off my least favorite football player Jameis Winston, and that monster sack you had against Case Keenum and the stupid ass Denver Broncos, sealing the victory for us. I will also continue to wear your jersey that I bought because jerseys are expensive and it will be a nice throwback jersey. (Plus, it’s still a Browns jersey, I still see people wearing Josh Gordon, Trent Richardson, and Johnny Manziel jerseys to games).
Stay spicy Jabrill Peppers, but not too spicy because you are the enemy now since you aren’t on the Browns.
Sincerely,
The Landlord
