Wes Welker was a true DAWG back in his days on the football field.
The former New England Patriots superstar — who began his career with AFC East rivals the Miami Dolphins and is now their wide receivers coach — was Tom Brady’s favorite receiver for six seasons at his peak, amassing 672 receptions for 7,459 yards and 37 yards. TD during that time.
So you can imagine that when a big-name entertainer like Kenny Chesney fills Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Welker will get a special shout-out if he wants.
Well, Mr. Chesney was kind enough to oblige Welker to come back while he was still playing, and as told on The Pat McAfee Show, the five-time Pro Bowler’s response was priceless:
He’s like a little bit crazy. wildcard when he had a few…and I could tell Wes was over there, across the stage.
He shifted his weight from side to side. I could just tell he wanted out.
I said, “Okay, ladies and gentlemen, welcome: Wes Welker! » And they went crazy. He didn’t get up.
He didn’t say anything… He walked up to the edge of the stage, looked across Gillette Stadium and said… *simulates pelvic thrusts* »
He was like a joker when there were a few…and I could tell Wes was over there, on the other side of the stage. He shifted his weight from side to side. I could just tell he wanted out.
I said, “Okay, ladies and gentlemen, welcome:
Wes Welker! » And they went crazy. He didn’t get up. He didn’t say anything… He walked up to the edge of the stage, looked at the entire Gillette Stadium and said… *simulates pelvic thrusts* »
Wes Welker basically played Ace Ventura in its entirety on Patriots Nation.
Chesney is gearing up for the Sun Goes Down Tour, which will include three Stadium shows Gillette Stadium at the end of the year’s tournament.
The 56-year-old country music icon loves New England, and the city of Boston even inspired a song named after him.
I can totally imagine Welker doing something with Ace. Ventura-esque at a Kenny show.
Not only was Bill Belichick saddened by dating someone nearly half a century younger than him, but also by the old-fashioned nature of his “patriotic ways” at the end of the GOAT’s tenure as coach of the Pats.
Belichick doesn’t let any player, including Brady, be criticized in team meetings.
Once Brady was out of the game and the losses became more frequent, it was time to go.
So imagine Welker in his Brady-Belichick prime as they endured a nine-season Super Bowl run.
winning droughts, trying to overcome and failing during Welker’s six years of service in New England.
With the exception of Rob Gronkowski, almost every Patriots team has presented such an image to the media, to say nothing of substance, and the Pats have become famous around the league for winning but at the expense of joy.
Good for Wes for doing some hip thrusts. The poor guy wasn’t on the team for the Patriots’ six Super Bowl wins — just two losses to the Giants, the first of which cost them a perfect season. .
As disappointing as it was, Welker deserved to be named to New England’s All-Dynasty team as their all-time receptions leader.
Maybe he can get his hands on the Lombardi Trophy as a member of Mike McDaniel’s coaching staff in Miami.
Or maybe on someone else’s team if he gets promoted from wide receivers coach.
Hell, maybe one day he’ll become a head coach and get that elusive piece of hardware that way.
Also relax with a few hip rotations when possible.
If the Dolphins somehow win the Super Bowl, we better see Welker on the championship boat, listening to Kenny songs on Bluetooth and showing off his hips.
