From Fourth String to NFL Legend: Shawn Springs' Rise | Mick Unplugged

I was pretty recruited by Ohio State and when I got there, man, I was like one of the guys thinking I was the man. Hell, my roommate was the player of the year, Stan Jackson, New Jersey. Then we had all type of guys who was just studs. And I found myself fourth on a depth chart deep on the bench, you know, my freshman year, man, laughing and thinking about it. But I believed in myself because the way I was raised, the way my dad worked me and the way he kind of installed the values in me by work ethic, discipline and you know, just taught me football, for me, man, it was like eye opening experience. One of the best things that ever happened. I can tell you more about like how I went from fourth on the depth chart to the highest drafted corner in the history of the NFL if we want to go into that. But I just worked, man.
