Quote:MOBILE, Ala. – Shaquem Griffin doesn’t yet have an invitation to the National Football League scouting combine, which tells you everything you need to know about the league’s public-relations cluelessness.

The one-handed Central Florida linebacker isn’t just a good story, he’s a great story. He was a running, tackling inspiration. And he can play: He was the 2016 American Athletic Conference defensive player of the year, a unanimous all-conference selection this season and a one-man/one-hand demolition crew against Auburn in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl.

Shaquem Griffin

Great PR for this young man.

Forte? Who's that?

The NFL isn't exactly known for being good at the PR game.

Pretty upset he hasn’t been invited yet.

The gem this week, where they deny a veterans' organization from buying a SB commercial slot, because their message "please stand" is too political. Even though "please stand" is literally what they announce in all NFL stadiums before the national anthem. They seriously can't get out of their own way.

Oops! Fixed.

If the NFL isn't in his future he'd probably make a hell of a coach. That young man knows the game of football. Best of luck to him.
