You might know ļ»æRodrigo Blankenshipļ»æ as the bespectacled Colts rookie with a golden kicking leg. Now get to know his rapping alter ego.
Meet Blanko, who dropped a 2018 single during his days booting through the uprights at the University of Georgia. The track is called "ATD" -- a reference to UGA coach Kirby Smart's book -- and it deserves several listens.
Blankenship nailed his musical debut like he nailed that overtime walk-off field goal in Week 11.
In "ATD", Blankenship raps that all he wants is "for me and my brothersā¦ to make the league." Fourteen former Georgia Bulldogs have been drafted since that song dropped in 2018, a total which doesn't include the Colts' undrafted rookie kicker.
That undrafted rookie kicker now leads the NFL in points scored. It's time to respect the specs on the field -- and respect his flow off of it.
