Ollie Gordon II is ready to make a statement in the NFL, donning the No. 31 jersey as a reminder of his journey and the teams that overlooked him during the draft. The Miami Dolphins' sixth-round pick, who won college football's Doak Walker Award, aims to turn the disappointment of being selected late into fuel for his career. With only 880 rushing yards last season at Oklahoma State, he reflects on his performance and the motivation behind his choice of number.

Gordon's determination is palpable as he acknowledges that 31 teams passed on him, vowing to use this as a driving force. The Dolphins see potential in him, and he's eager to show why he deserves to be recognized as a valuable player in the league. His journey from being a late draft pick to making an impact on the field will be closely watched by fans and analysts alike.
