We sit down with Darren Sproles to unpack how a “too small” label became a 15-year career built on speed through seams, smart screens, and relentless work. Norv shares the schemes, matchups, and moments that unlocked Sproles’ impact across San Diego, New Orleans, and Philadelphia.

• Senior Bowl spark and first impressions
• Draft rooms, Al Davis debates, and early belief
• Return game mastery through daily reps
• Detroit pivot, playoff screens, and role clarity
• The bullet route and using Gates for matchups
• Why great screens are acting, timing, and leverage
• Chargers exit, “lost a step” noise, and proving it wrong
• Parenting, youth track, and building mental strength
• Eagles talk, staying together, and resilience
• Pass protection technique and third down trust
