    I simply can't say enough good things about Amon-Ra St. Brown. Many see him as just a great slot receiver who moves the chains. He is much more than that! 1500 yards last season says that on its own. He is virtually unstoppable in the slot with those great hands, but he also runs great post routes and can burn a safety with his speed if he has to. Add into that a fearless attitude when it comes to blocking, and you have a complete player. He is also a clutch performer. That's on the field. Off the field, the man is a workhorse who is a great example for the whole team, not just the receivers. He is as tough as nails. He is approachable by the fans. This man epitomizes what a Detroit Lion should be. His contract was big, but he is worth it. Much love and respect to #14! One Pride! Go Lions!

St. Brown is.even above him in my book. A relentless competitor who constantly strives for greatness. I love that chip on his shoulder and that he can name all the receivers selected before him. I think he's yellow jacket material.

    THIS IS MY GUY. I've lived in Detroit my whole life, but I didn't become a Lions fan until 2021. Amon-Ra St. Brown was the first name I learned on the Brand New Lions. I saw a video of when he went undercover at a hospital, and spoke to a couple of nurses who were Lions fans. And when I learned that even early on he was giving back to the city of Detroit, I was like: T h a t ' s m y g u y. His jersey is the first sports jersey I've ever owned.

    Hey everyone! There is a weird cut around the 8:07 mark. Sorry about that. 8 days after uploading the video, the NFL copyrighted a section that I had to trim out. So instead of editing the video and reupload it, I decided to just trim the section out. It’s getting hard to edit these! The NFL are sticklers on their product (which is understandable) but I try my best to edit these videos in a way to avoid those copyright issues. Cheers!

    From my perspective, I see him as a human specimen. Emphasis on specimen. He is very inspiring but do I want to have that kind of regimen. No. What is 'great' what is 'average'? I have nothing to be great at (I was in music and was good, not great). I will not go down in the history books. He will. In a way it's Greco-Roman. On one hand, he was raised 'Lacedaemonian'. On the other, he possesses that intense Roman-esque 'ambition'. His parents have clearly melded mind and body into the competitor that he is but for what? Our entertainment? Riches? Certainly he is now a wealthy young man. I suspect his spirit is equally on par with the other attributes. Perhaps, vehemently atheistic? Perhaps, on fire the Lord whatever it may be. It doesn't matter. He is an interesting person that has pushed himself to be admired by other humans. Overall, I'm just happy that he's a Lion. If it weren't for Penei and then ARSB, these players, we would still be suffering our humiliating and ridiculous worst franchise in all of Sports history. Things are changing because of people like him.
