2048 DSFL Season

Tom Taylor was picked up on waivers by the Minnesota Greyducks with less than half of the regular season games left in The DSFL. When Tom arrived, he was moved To the linebacker position due to better options at the safety position, which led him to struggle in his first game and due to his lack of speed. This Fueled Tom’s Drive, and by the second game, Tom became the number one safety for the team by earning a total of 149 TPE to improve his game. He was also able to earn his first interception and sack that game. Although Tom’s time with the Greyducks was short, he was able to be a great defensive leader for the team and help lead them to the Ultimini game. Even though they didn’t win, he was able to show a tremendous amount of skill and perseverance. Hopefully, with the short amount of games he played, Tom hopes it was enough to show scouts from the ISFL what he’s capable of.
