Quenton Nelson was the 6th overall pick in the 2018 draft. He was drafted to help cement the offensive line and turn it into one of the strengths of the team. He has already done that and then some. Quarantining with him would be an interesting experience for sure.

Nelson has already changed the culture of the offensive line and how they operate. I would want to ask him how he has already gained enough respect from his teammates to turn that culture around. I would also want to know who instilled that culture within him.

Being an interior offensive lineman, he doesn’t get a whole lot of recognition. But being as good as he is I would want to know how playing on the interior differs from playing tackle in terms of preparation. I also would want to know how he keeps his mean streak on gamedays.

Nelson seems to be a little bit of a quiet comedian as well. I bet he would have some low-key jokes that would be pretty funny. He could keep us company for the 14 days doing ridiculous things and having a good time. We all know he can handle a keg stand as well, so that would be loads of fun.

Attending Notre Dame, I would want to see how it felt for him to be drafted to the in-state team. I wonder if that’s the team he always wanted to go to, or if he initially wanted to go somewhere else.

The last player on this list is the longest-tenured player and surely has some stories from his time in the NFL.
