Football: Former Crespi tight end Joseph Fauria is making name for himself in NFL

Share

Who’s having the best NFL start among the undrafted rookies? Former Crespi tight end Joseph Fauria is certainly in the running.

He has caught a touchdown pass in each of his two games for the Detroit Lions. And he has finished the touchdown with the typical Fauria enthusiasm _ with a dance.

His latest on Sunday against the Washington Redskins brought back memories from the band, ‘N Sync.

Everyone would have seen Fauria’s dancing abilities during his playing days at UCLA if dancing after a touchdown were legal. He’s been holding everything back and finally gets to show his true talent.

Those who remember him at Crespi know he hasn’t changed one bit. He was always trying to express himself in funny ways. Now he has a much bigger audience.
