Last year we debuted an All-Grit Team with teams that were featured on the Kee On Sports game of the week. This year some of the teams may be different but the tradition stays the same.
The inspiration of the All Grit Team comes from the old All-Madden teams that players would anticipate the release of every year. These teams were picked by former CBS/Fox color broadcaster John Madden, he picked these teams with a few principles in mind. Each player on the All-Madden team was selfless, hardworking, gritty, and were willing to fight for that one extra yard. They may not have been the best player in their position but they were a player you wanted on your team. This All-grit team will be my take on the list for all the teams we covered for the KOS Game of the Week. These players are tough, self determined, team players, and the hardest workers on the field. This is not a list determined by stats, accolade’s, college offers, or who we think has the most talent. It is purely based on saying “boy, that kid is tough” when you see them play football.
The All-Grit team will be announced during the playoff podcast as the article will be posted that same week. Comment down below on who you think should be on the All-Grit team, Here are all the teams that have players eligible for the All-Grit Team.
