Terrell Suggs makes admission on former Patriots TE Aaron Hernandez
Former Baltimore Ravens All-Pro linebacker Terrell Suggs was asked what was the most annoying tight end era he's ever faced, and he quickly pointed to the New England Patriots teams with both Rob Gronkowski and Aaron Hernandez on the field at the same time.
However, Suggs noted that Hernandez was especially a problem on the football field.
"Gronk was big as [expletive], but Hernandez, he was a problem," said Suggs, when appearing on the "Rory & Mal" podcast. "This [expletive] would route you the [expletive] up. Aaron Hernandez was a [expletive] hell of a football player. Too bad that was his second job."
Hernandez, a 2010 fourth-round draft pick, only played in the NFL for three seasons, but at one point, he was viewed as one of the best tight ends in the league. His best season came in 2011 when he had a career-high 79 receptions for 910 yards and seven touchdowns.
It was a nightmare for defenses to deal with both Gronkowski and Hernandez on the field at the same time. They formed the greatest tight end duo in NFL history.
That run was ultimately short-lived with Hernandez being arrested and convicted for the murder of Odin Lloyd.

Action! Derrick Henry can parlay a 2,000-yard rushing season into a movie cameo with Adam Sandler
BALTIMORE (AP) — 'King Henry' finally has the attention of 'The Waterboy.' Baltimore Ravens star running back Derrick Henry has an offer from Adam Sandler, his favorite actor, to be cast in a movie if the five-time Pro Bowl selection rushes for 2,000 yards this season. The offer grew out of Henry's appearance on radio personality Dan Patrick's show this week to discuss his $30 million, two-year contract extension. Patrick told Henry he would get him in a Sandler movie if he made NFL history with a second 2,000-yard season. Two days later, Sandler made the offer himself in a video shown to Henry on the practice field. 'That's my dawg,' a wide-smiling Henry said while watching the video. Sandler, star of 'Happy Gilmore' and the remake of 'The Longest Yard' along with 'The Waterboy,' said he was in a hotel room while filming his greeting for Henry. At one point, Sandler turned the camera to show his bulldog. 'Two thousand yards-plus this year not only gets you in a movie, but we'll have a nice dinner together and talk about Dan Patrick's facial hair and how hard it is for him to grow it,' Sandler joked in a video posted Friday. 'I love ya and keep it up.' Sandler came up during Patrick's interview with Henry because Patrick was hearing a hoodie for the soon-to-be-released 'Happy Gilmore 2.' Sandler had given Patrick the hoodie. 'Can you do me a favor?' Henry asked Patrick. 'If you ever see him again, tell him I'm a really big fan and would really love to meet him one day.' Patrick left Sandler a voice message — and Sandler responded. 'Dan you're a real one!' Henry later wrote on social media. Henry rushed for 2,027 yards with Tennessee in 2020, when he was an All-Pro and the AP NFL Offensive Player of the Year in the fifth of his eight seasons with the Titans. Henry nearly did it again as a 30-year-old in a resurgence with the Ravens last season, when he ran for 1,921 yards. Saquon Barkley of the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles led the NFL with 2,005 yards. ___ AP NFL:
