As claimed, if thrown a block at that moment, running back Warren would have scored a touchdown on the play in question.
Earlier, Pickens in contrary shared to Kevin Clark, then of TheRinger.com,
“So every time I’m out there, that’s why I throw the blocks. I love getting the ball, and when I’m not getting the ball I play angry, so the attention is back on me. I basically draw attention to myself.”
