An enduring Commanders fanatic, I live and breathe burgundy and gold. Born and raised in the great state of Virginia, and a proud George Mason Patriot, my passion for D.C. sports and my fond regard for words makes sharing my love for NFL football a joyous obsession. I have spent the better part of the last eight years sharing my love for sports and people with readers and listeners in a variety of ways. My NFL writing has found the pages of outlets like George Mason University's "Fourth Estate" paper and NBC Sports Washington. Follow along on Twitter! @conorforrest_
