New Orleans Saints P Blake Gillikin's best quote from the 2021 season:
"I mean, it feels good. I think it's, I was talking to guys in our room. It's a collective award. It's not just what I do. It's what our whole punt team does, whole special teams. Back in college, James Franklin (Penn State Head coach) always told us that with team success comes individual recognition. And that's kind of what this is. So, just really thankful to have the best two gunners in the league, the best snapper in the league, great punt protection, great coverage. That's really what this is. It feels good, but for everybody." Blake Gillikin
