Players can do a lot worse than watching Moton work, because he epitomizes the steady approach required to create a 10-year NFL career. After playing as a reserve his rookie year, he’s barely come off the field since, playing 128 of a possible 132 games.

So when he thinks about what role he can play for Freeling (or any teammate), he thinks back to his rookie year in 2017, when he sat behind All-Pro tackle Daryl Williams.

“The thing that helped me out the most was just sitting back and observing how the older guys worked, right?” Moton said. “So I had the All-Pro Daryl Williams ahead of me, and I just wanted to see how he attacked the film, how he attacked practice, all the extra things he did after, all his attention to detail. So, you know, the biggest thing is just doing things the right way and, you know, hoping they’re paying attention to that and letting them know, you know, if you have any questions or any concerns or asking about how you do this or that, I’m always here for you. I’m always here to support and help you get to where you want to go, and whatever you can do to help this team, I want to be there for you.

“So, ultimately, if I see something where I think I can help, I go along with that. But you know, ultimately I think it just starts with taking care of your own business and doing things the right way, and so that way you just show how like people showed me how things are supposed to be done, I feel like that’s what I work to do for the younger guys as well.”
