It’s rare for a player to be voted a team captain in only his second season, especially for a defensive lineman. Kobie Turner earned that honor this year when his teammates chose him as one of the Rams’ captains and in Week 1, it was easy to see why he was so deserving of that recognition.
In his first game as a captain, Turner was mic’d up. He’s a vocal leader on the field and off it, bringing passion and a relentless motor to every single play. Turner got the defense fired up with a pregame speech and was always talking to his teammates throughout the game, whether it was after a teammate’s sack or John Johnson III’s interception.
The highlight of the whole mic’d-up video, though was Bobby Brown III once again pointing out how Turner sits like an old man on the bench. Turner even got rookie Tyler Davis to sit like him and cross his legs, which was quite funny.
