Rams safety Blake Countess will be playing in his second Super Bowl with the Rams. The Class of 2011 grad also play in Super Bowl LIII when the Rams lost 13-3 to the New England Patriots.
Bengals linebacker Keandre Jones, a member of the Falcons’ Class of 2015, will be playing in his first Super Bowl.
Both Countess and Jones played for legendary head coach Bob Milloy during their time at Good Counsel.
“They were great players before I knew ’em. I was just fortunate enough to get them to come to Good Counsel,” Milloy told WDVM-TV. “And you know those kind of guys, you know, you just get them to the bus and get them to the right field. They’re gonna make a real good coach out of you.”
