Orakpo proudly told me that he did well enough in interception drills that he's considered asking Shanahan to use him in goal-line situations -- as a receiver. And considering the Skins' depth at that position, maybe it's something the coaches should look into.
"My hands are really good," said Orakpo, who has seven sacks and a forced fumble this season, but is still waiting on his first career interception. "I used to work on punt returns sometimes for fun when I was at Texas, and I was pretty good at it."
This is hilarious. I don't know if it would be successful, but it would be great fun to watch!
