Catching up on some reading. This elegy for two fallen high school football stars, a half-century apart, is a pinnacle of a type of journalism that has become woefully scarce. @tomjunod.bsky.social is a master of this form and I can't wait for his new book. www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

Two quarterbacks played a half century apart. With his trademark lyrical prose, @tomjunod.bsky.social unspools the tragic stories of Jay Kutner and Caden Tellier, bound together by the game, forever. @dvnjr.bsky.social's favorite this week www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

Many years ago, I was on the field when the star of our high school, Jay Kutner, suffered a terrible injury. His fate haunted me, and last summer I decided to to explore it. Jay’s story led me to the story of Caden Tellier and this @espn story, “The Unforgotten.” www.espn.com/cfl/story/_/...
