What a great story.

[@andrewbird57]

Steely Dan's "Deacon Blues" is a reference to Deacon Jones.

[@DarkKing009]

The Allen family named one of their kids after him. So I'll say it was a good relationship.

[@nflunveiled]

yeah I'd say so lol

[@easymoney8254]

[@nflunveiled]

"I’m the best defensive end around. I’d hate to have to play against me!”
