Jake Locker is now officially a quarterback for the Tennessee Titans. After all the drama the past year about how Jake Locker should have come out of college as the #1 pick, I’m glad to see Jake was still drafted #8 ahead of Gabbert who was expected to be the 2nd QB drafted, not Locker.
Clearly the Titans saw something in Jake Locker the analysts didn’t. Those familiar with Jake weren’t as surprised. What Jake Locker accomplished in his final year at the UW will long be a part of Husky lore and he will always be remembered as the person who turned the UW from an 0-12 team to a bowl winner in short order.
Now Jake Locker is a QB for an NFL team. My hope now is that Jake Locker will be given the time and training to reach his full potential, which I believe will be a top-notch NFL quarterback & an amazing role model for young players. I’m now officially a Tennessee Titans fan.
