New York Jets rookie cornerback Qwan’tez Stiggers’s path to the NFL was different than most, but that’s not the only reason he could stand out from the crowd this season.
Stiggers, selected by the Jets in the fifth round in April, is only the third player in the common draft era to be drafted without going to college. As he prepares for his first year in the NFL, he told reporters about an unconventional promise he made to himself that has to do with his grooming habits.
“We gonna get a Super Bowl this year,” Stiggers told Yahoo Sports. “I made a promise to myself: I’m not getting a haircut till I win the Super Bowl. If I got to be a caveman, I’ll be a caveman.”
