Bobby Wagner was selected by the Seattle Seahawks in the second round of the 2012 NFL Draft after standing out at Utah State. Wagner has spent each of his nine pro seasons with the team, immediately stepping in as a starter on an intimidating Seahawk defense.

The linebacker won't ever forget one moment during his rookie season, when members of the team's Legion of Boom roasted him while he led his first huddle.

It is a hilarious story from Wagner's rookie year and illustrates that life as a first-year player in the NFL isn't always glamorous.

While most of the members of that tough defense have left the team, Wagner has remained. He has played in 130 games for the Seahawks, registering a start in every game except one during his nine years in Seattle.

The linebacker is in the midst of another great season, grading as the best at his position on Pro Football Focus. Wagner's 100 tackles this season lead the team by a wide margin and rank eighth in the NFL. He has also added 6 tackles for loss and 3 sacks.

The Seahawks will take on the New York Giants in Week 13, although the Giants will be without their starting QB Daniel Jones as they hope to earn the upset win.
