Scott Mason chats with the Athletic's Minnesota Vikings beat reporter Arif Hasan to discuss the football journey of the Jets' newest TE, Tyler Conklin! We go beyond the film on Conklin as Arif talks about the TE's background, his journey from HS basketball star to walk-on TE, and eventually the NFL, how his relentless nature and belief in himself propelled him, the relationships he developed along the way, what led to him getting an opportunity to play in Minnesota and eventually becoming a starter, what he's like as a person, and more!
