Day 25 of 90-in-90 features Isaiah Burse, a WR hoping to be back with the Chargers next season. Player Factfile:
Name: Isaiah Burse
Age: 25
Position: WR
College: Fresno State
NFL games played: 19
Games played for the Chargers: 9
Fun fact: Burse is right handed, but in an attempt to become ambidextrous he spends about an hour a day writing with his left hand to strengthen it.
Isaiah Burse has one hell of an interesting story.
It begins in 2006, when Burse was a High School student and the starting Varsity QB for Calvary Temple-Modesto in Northern California. Burse was good - very good - and led Calvary to the Playoffs. Except in 2006, Burse was just 14 years old - too young to be playing Varsity football. According to blackhatfootball.com, one of Calvary's rivals knew that Burse was ineligible to be playing, but waited until the regular season was over to report it, believing that the league would suspend Calvary from the Playoffs.
Thankfully, the league didn't bow down to that bush league tactic
