There is a jump that players are expected to make from their rookie seasons to their second years, but that jump is expected to be even greater when year three rolls around.
And for linebacker Alex Highsmith, year three was a monster jump.
“It was a good year, but I’m far from satisfied,” said Highsmith. “I never get complacent or comfortable, but I am grateful for a better year and being injury free for a year. I got hurt before the year in camp but was fortunate that I went through the season without an injury. I got little bumps and bruises, but I’m just blessed to have this platform that God has given me.
