Patrick Willis is hands down the best linebacker in the NFL. Before it's all said and done, he may be the best linebacker of all time. He's known for bone-crushing hits, pass-coverage-level speed and the God-given ability to get to the football. And it all started in his first practice as a freshman at Ole Miss.
I knew my first practice in college. I saw a safety hit a RB and I knew I'd rather hit than be hit. #makeitepic CC @visaIt just goes to show that the biggest decisions of a football player's life happen at practice.
