Brock's story as the last draft pick is too good for the league to not take advantage of. The NFL should want Brock to win the SB. It would inspire many and draw in casual fans.
Sadly the league has evolved past storylines.
It's about money now and not storylines. Think of Caleb Williams and company getting paid 1-3 million per year in college, when they hit the NFL... those same investors dont want to hear about Mr Irrelevant's cinderella story. They want to hear about how the back to back heisman winner they paid ~$6m in college for is ahead of his time even if it turns out to be a 6-11 cardinals team... oh wait that wont happen cause they will just keep him in college for another year making millions.
The boosters and companies paying millions to college athletes dont give 2 sh*ts about cinderellas anymore, they want their product they invested in propped up even if they are pulling a justin fields or faltering alltogether.
