Fouts on Herbert

[Scoregon]

Thought I'd pass on this article, as I've seen mentions of Fouts on here numerous times and thought some of you would appreciate his take on Herbert and that they actively communicate. Wasn't sure if most of you would see it, since it's from the Bend Bulletin near where Fouts lives in Sisters.

Key quote from the article:

“He’s got it all at a very early age,” Fouts says of the former Sheldon (Eugene) High star. “He’s a brilliant young man with tremendous athletic ability, and the willingness to take the shot and let the ball fly. Everything he’s doing is what you want your quarterback to do. I knew he was better than the guys taken before him (in the draft), and his upside is really unlimited. But the fact that the Chargers did take him, it just makes it that much more special.”

Fouts says he communicates with Herbert via text often, offering his “two cents.”

“I don’t want to burden him,” Fouts says. “Because his burden is huge. People have no idea what goes into being a starting quarterback on an NFL team, as far as the day-to-day. So, I’m there if he needs me, and he knows that.”

Thanks for posting! It’s encouraging to hear that Dan Fouts has graciously shared some of his vast wealth of knowledge with Herbert. One great Chargers QB passing the torch to hopefully another when it is all said and done.. and yes I know that I am getting way ahead of myself here, but it’s OK to dream for now, right? lol.

On defense, JS a unanimous choice.
