re: Trent Richardson thinks he's going to be a NFL HOFer

quote:

---

CSNMidAtlantic’s Chris Miller asked the former No. 3 overall pick how he thought his career would end, and Richardson said it would be with him “Putting on a yellow jacket.”

Wording's a little vague. Is the past tense for when the question was asked, or was the question asked in past tense? That is, did Miller ask Trent how he thinks his career will end or how he once thought it would end? We can debate the former all we want, but the latter is actually admirable. He's essentially admitting he had high goals to start out with and was humbled. Most people are too proud to admit that second part.
