First image of David Corenswet in ‘Mr. Irrelevant’. The film follows John Tuggle, who was given the title of ‘Mr Irrelevant’ after being the last pick of the last round of the 1983 NFL draft. In theater on December 25.

    I thought that would be a movie about Brock Purdy as he’s become the most relevant Mr. Irrelevant

  2. People who are my age and older will know what they’re in for, but people who weren’t alive in the early 80s are going to think they’re in for a football movie and get Brian’s Song instead.

  3. I just read the dude’s Wikipedia and yeah this movie is going to be a tearjerker.

    I watched John Tuggle play at Cal. There is a bit of context that isn’t obvious. Six years earlier, Cal had their all star QB Joe Roth die of cancer. Tuggle was a lunch pail guy that you could count on for 3-4 yards a run straight up the guy. Not flashy. Humbly did his job very well. Tuggle’s death so soon after after Roth’s was eery.
