Pop Douglas lost his uncle on Saturday night -- shot dead -- and then played for the Patriots on Sunday (without, I think, even telling his coach). I hadn't known just how close Pop and Terrell Jennings had been growing up, but clearly TJ also thought of Pop's uncle as if he were a family member (He said: "we called him 'Tiger'").




I find it really hard to imagine what these two young men are going through. It's very, very, very sad to hear about and I am so sorry for their loss.

Very unfortunate situation hope they can comfort each other on and off the field.
 
Nice interview with Pop and Terrell by Mike Burton. (Mentions their bereavement, but very low-key.)

There’s lots of good stuff in that interview.

Jennings being homeless and sleeping sometimes at POP’s grandma’s house in high school.

Their high school teammates going 2-8 in their junior year, then winning the Florida state championship in their senior year. Almost as good as Patriots going from a four win season to what they’re doing this season.
