Santana Moss: 'Meant For Me To Be' A Redskin

Today's sign that we've really reached the winding-down part of the season: players who are facing free means being asked about their futures with the team.Nearly everyone in the cabinet room saidthat they however had enough of football left and that they hoped to play that football here.It's what you'd trust to hear, what you'd ask to hear, and it often doesn't really mean all that much.

But Santana Moss's declaration - he's currently slated to be a free agent after this season - was particularly heartfelt.

"I don't look like leaving is passing to assist me win games somewhere else," Moss said, frankly. "I find that, you know, somewhere that you are comfy with, that you look like you can play, and your house can experience and, you know, you can prove your home and be comfortably, and turn a big game, and turn at a high level. You know, why leave? So that's why I find the way I feel." Moss actually uttered a sensation of belonging here that I don't suppose I had every heard him mention before."I merely look like once I became a Redskin, I felt like it was meant for me to be here," Moss said. "Once I got that chance to do here, you know-coming into the conference in 2001, I heard that's where I was going anyway. The whole week leading up to it, they had me under Washington, Washington, Washington. For any reason, the Jets got me. And when I got a hazard to do anyway, I was like, hey, maybe it was meant. And when the career has went the way it went here, when it comes to simply having the success I've had here, you know, you sort of say, well this must be the squad for me." Moss's play this year certainly backs up the mind that he can still play, and still thrive in Kyle Shanahan's offense.With one view on Sunday, Moss will set a new career high for receptions with 85.He's currently at 1,041 yards, which is his fourth highest yardage total in his ten NFL seasons, and he has six touchdowns - there's no sign whatever that his back is declining.For me, I'd love to see Moss in a Redskins uniform again next season, but I'm mostly just shocked that it's already time to starting talking around the offseason again.
