I was surprised to catch about ten minutes of an interview with Lowe last night, on Sirius XM NFL radio. Believe it was on their Late Hits show. Anyway I was surprised that he rated an interview on a national broadcast. Assume his agent set it up, and assume he wouldn’t be doing it without at least tacit team approval. Wondered how much team helpedcset it up or if they explicitly gave it a green light. In any case I figure it shows positive regard for him by the show producers. He’s a feel-good story but his play against the Jets must have been regarded well enough to give him airtime.
He was pretty good in the interview. Talked about technique and how he learned to play both sides of the line. He gave Trent Brown lots of credit for helping him with tips and sharing knowledge. Thing that stood out most to me was his attitude and approach. For example he said he embraced the challenge of learning to play both sides as a way to increase his value to the team. He made it abundantly clear that he wants to improve his craft and establish a long term career in the NFL for himself. Of course there was also some fluff about essentially adopting his brother and having a young family to raise. Can’t ignore the feel-good stuff.
one comment in particular jumped out to me, not sure which interviewer it was but one of them made a comment that Lowe “found a home in New England.” That really made me wonder if the team was overtly involved in his appearance. At least it means that the interviewers feel he’s on a good footing here. Of course Bill is the opinion that matters annd he’s not going to say much about it. Also iirc there was another comment questioning whether the Vikes might regret the trade now.
Generally I was impressed with how much positive regard they showed for him. All in all the whole segment left me with the impression his arc is ascending. Hope so!
