In in his first NFL start, Shaquil Barrett was fanatic. Number 48 was all over the field and is becoming the biggest surprise for Wade Phillips’ defense. Barrett attributes some of his success to going undrafted, saying that he still has a chip on his shoulder because he was passed over for seven rounds.

Barrett joined The Big Show with Kent Erickson, Benny Bashem and Benjamin Allbright to discuss not getting drafted, his first start and the origins of his nickname, “Moochie.”
