Kerrigan Answers Qs, Hands Out Tickets

So we learned yesterday that Ryan Kerrigan would be a math teacher/football coach if he wasn’t in the NFL, he’s a bandwagon fan, he still gets nervous before football games and that he considers teammate London Fletcher the most underrated player in the league.

Kerrigan was participating in the second @Redskins Player Twitter Takeover, in which he actually got in front of our laptops and had control of the @Redskins Twitter account for a good half-hour or so. Rookie running back Alfred Morris was our first @Redskins Player Twitter Takeover participant, which happened on Tuesday.

Kerrigan on Thursday also surprised our followers by handing out two pairs of tickets to Sunday’s Redskins-Eagles NFC East showdown at FedExField to whoever could answer a special Kerrigan-themed trivia question (see below).

Here’s the entire @Redskins Ryan Kerrigan Twitter Takeover from yesterday:

First question from @PRLeni: "What job would you have if you weren't a football player?" #HTTR—

RK: I would be a Math Teacher and Football Coach. I always enjoyed Math growing up so teaching it would be my ideal job.—

Second question for @RyanKerrigan91 from @bauckland: "Do you still get nervous before games?" #HTTR—
  (@Redskins) November 15, 2012

RK: Yeah I definitely still get pre-game butterflies. They tend to go away after the first snap but up til then I usually have some nerves.—

Next question for @RyanKerrigan91 comes from @DBLAZE1119: "What NFL team did you root for when you were a kid?" #HTTR—
  (@Redskins) November 15, 2012

RK: I was a huge bandwagon fan growing up, so whoever was good haha. But as I got older I rooted for the Colts b/c I lived close to Indy.—

Last question, then chance for tix; From @JohnMoxon4: "How is it getting to play with the most underrated pro ever in @LFletcher59?" #HTTR—
  (@Redskins) November 15, 2012

RK: It is a privilege getting to play with a guy like Fletch. He makes everyone else's jobs easier and is the heartbeat of this team.—

And then Kerrigan chimed in a little while later on his own Twitter account:
