 Alright everybody, what is going on? Welcome back to another video. Today's video I'm gonna finally finally once and for all look at oh someone's calling me. I'm gonna finally look at Brian Dawkins Weapon X in the previous video. I looked at Steve Smith senior finally You know, it's been it's been months. I'm sorry. I apologize and it's been months with this guy too Like everyone continues to ask they continue to say I cannot believe Jacob has not reacted to this man Brian Dawkins weapon X Let's do this. There ain't no time like the present and I Don't know what video to watch Brian Dawkins the Wolverine Brian Dawkins weapon X The making of weapon X let's do let's do this one now Joseph Vincent videos, I feel like tell a bit of a story if any, you know Career changing moments happen. He's gonna cover it. So that's why I'm not gonna look at Wikipedia beforehand But I've never seen I've never seen Brian Dawkins in the flesh never seen it what he looks like I don't know what what position he plays nothing So let's do this. I actually he's called the minister of no is that Who's the minister of defense? That's another person I need to look up. That's the next one. Actually, let me have a look. I Don't want Australian politics NFL Reggie wire. Okay. He's next. Just do it so I can start counting I believe to talk about a player being the heart and soul of a team But in the case of Brian Dawkins the longest tenured athlete in the entire city of Philadelphia. It felt legit Go feel that Weapon X Oh fly eagle fly Let's go Dawkins All the time is something that invited me into that world that would feel so good You gotta watch out The Wolverines coming so let's go Brian Dawkins. Let's have a look at his uh His stats here Played 16 seconds. Well, that's very similar to the last guy I looked at um Steve Smith 16 seasons except Smith was a wide receiver He's 45 now. He was six foot 210 pounds. I never know whether these weights are what they were when they were playing or what they are now But anyway, 95 kilos he went fucking hell 1996 draft He played for the Eagles for 12 years Once again, just like Steve Smith went for the went to the Broncos for the last three seasons I wonder why that was He's a member of the 30 for 30 club of players who have at least 30 interceptions and 30 forced fumbles He and Charles Tillman are the only players to record at least 35 of each Forced fumbles have only been recorded stacked since 1991 He finished his career with the Eagles starting 182 of 183 games 898 tackles 34 interceptions 32 forced fumbles and 26 sacks Holy shit. So on the 20 on in 2009 13 years after coming into the league. He signed a five year 17 million dollar contract Head coach John Fox named Dawkins the starting strong safety to begin the regular season in 2011 He started in the season opener collected a season high and nine combined tackles On january 19th 2012. It was announced that Dawkins would play in the 2012 pro bowl as a late injury replacement for Pittsburgh Steelers safety Troy po po polo malo It's been a while since I looked at him. Troy polo malo was literally like probably the fourth reaction I ever did crazy After calling coach John Fox on april 23rd 2012 Dawkins announced via twitter that he was retiring from the NFL His reasoning was that he wanted to retire while he was still healthy That's very smart He planned to stay in colorado and wanted to begin coaching high school football that fall And on april 28th 2012 Dawkins announced that he would sign a one day contract and retire as a philadelphia eagle That's awesome The eagles have retired only nine players jerseys in franchise history Which goes back more than 20 years the eagles retired Dawkins number 20 in a ceremony at half time of their september 30 game against the giants On february 4th 2018. It was announced that Dawkins was voted into the pro football hall of fame He joined randy moss brian earlart latcher ray lewis And former eagles teammate cheryl owens brian earlart latcher earlatcher That's one that I need to do actually Get on to that Over the span of his career Dawkins developed a reputation as a ballhawking safety became the unquestioned leader of the philadelphia eagles defense He earned the nickname weapon x a codename of marvel character wolverine. I did not know that I thought it was just x men in general as a captain and unquestioned leader Dawkins has acted as a mentor to multiple players early in their career Chris harris jr. Credits dawkins and champ bailey for urging the dem for broncos coaching staff to play him As an undrafted rookie after he showed promise and performed well in practice squad And chris harris jr. Is now Playing for the broncos after being undrafted Okay 224 games, which is freaking crazy Let's have a look at this 224 He is equal 119th brian dawkins And he was in nine pro bowl games But no super bowls. No He was no, did he have a suit? What's this as an administrator? Dawkins won his first super bowl when the eagles won super bowl 52 last year against the patriots on july 30th 2016 dawkins returned to the eagles to take a role in team scouting staff He was given a new role of football operations executive to assist with player development He won his first super bowl waltz in that role. Okay, so he got one. Oh, I'm bloody happy about that All right brian dawkins Um, that's it man. That was my reaction finally to brian dawkins weapon x Now I know who he is.
