It was friendly fire that ended DeShon Singleton's season early in 2023. A counter blocking scheme to his side he'll likely never forget.
But the physical 6-foot-3, 210-pound safety is back and starting to feel like himself again, running with the first-team defense while trying to keep pace with new DBs coach John Butler. Singleton's rehab wasn't easy, but he has a good head on his shoulders, which helped with the setbacks that popped up.
“You’re looking in a dark tunnel and you don’t know what’s on the other side, so now you just have to persevere and be consistent in everything you’re doing and just go head-first into it. That’s what I really did with my rehab.”
