 In conclusion:

How cool is it to get to hear from the man himself? I first want to thank Mohamed for taking the time out of his busy life to sit down with me and answer some of the questions I had. If you had question marks surrounding him, hopefully they have been answered now.

The 26-year-old has fresh legs after being underutilized with the Bengals which is great. That’s exactly what the Falcons need. He has just 15 career drops in his 152 career receptions including zero in 2015. Having a receiver with reliable hands is key. Sure, speed factors in as well, but I’ll take a receiver who can snag balls out of the air than a receiver who runs a 4.30 40-yard dash and drops 10 passes a season.

We will ultimately have to wait and see how he performs out on the field, but he should have no problem finding his role and succeeding. I can’t wait to see him suit up in his slick No. 12 jersey and tear it up. Oh, and let’s make sure to get him a few pairs of Batman gloves and cleats to go along with it.

Sanu had one final thing to say after talking with me.

“Just a guy from Jersey man.”
