'Bobblehead' Quinn aims to keep the sacks coming

Posted Aug 5, 2014
By a mere one-half sack, Robert Quinn missed becoming the inaugural winner of the Deacon Jones Award, which goes to the NFL’s sack champion. But he did make his first Pro Bowl in 2013, was named first-team All Pro and was the league’s defensive player of the year. But in this day and age of professional sports, you haven’t truly arrived until you get your own bobblehead doll. (St. Louis Post-Dispatch)
