Everyone has their 'welcome to the NFL' moment.
Carolina Panthers' offensive guard Amini Silatolu entered the NFL facing one of the largest competition jumps of an early round pick. The team loved his aggressiveness, and ability to block down field -- two things he displayed in his first season. There were also a healthy share of struggles, and opportunities to learn from those first-year mistakes.
When it came to being an example of a future hall of famer's success, Amini wasn't too pleased with his 15 minutes.

That being said, there are about a million reasons to love this tweet.

Here's to an excellent year two for Silatolu, hopefully with less defensive highlights.
