Some sad news out of Bemidji. BSU assistant coach and Chemistry Department Chair Ken Traxler's health took a horrible turn over the last couple of days. Please keep his family and friends in your thoughts and prayers.

His younger brother is currently committed to BSU. He plays DB. Bigger than Gunner and appears to play with a lot of grit like his brother. He is not as athletic as Gunner.

His day yesterday was something else - almost bizarre, in a way. Here's a bunch of random information about him:

-After the touchdown, he lines up on the kickoff - makes the tackle.
-He closes the game out with a 38-yard TD reception from Stidham - his first offensive TD, possibly ever, but at least since high school.
-Three weeks ago, Belichick makes comments possibly hinting at relieving Gunner from his starting spot
-Last week, he takes an 80 yard return to the house - it gets called back on a very questionable penalty.
-He is now the second player in the NFL this season to score a TD on special teams and offense (I believe in the same game), and the first Patriot since Edelmann in 2014
-On top of all of that - he also managed to squeeze in a 61 yard return yesterday.

Also interesting - after his punt return TD, Cam Newton was spotted in the end zone celebrating with him. He wasn't on the field during the play, he was just so excited that he celebrated with his teammate anyway.

He was named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week!

Wonderful! Well deserved.

I really regret not buying his football card back when it was a little more affordable, haha.
