His brother was drafted by the Indianapolis Colts in the sixth round of the NFL draft Saturday. During that time, Jake’s face was actually shown instead of Sam, but he loved it.

“Good, good,” Sam said with a huge grin during his availability with reporters. “Jake deserves all the screen time you can get.”
