I’ve been a lions fan my whole life. Through the ups, and downs I never thought I would see the day where the lions are legitimate contenders. This is the first time I’ve ever seen this video and I’m so happy this guy is cornerstone of this team. One pride baby, let’s go!
This guy helped change the trajectory of the Lions franchise. Dude just turned 23, is already a captain of his team and arguably the best lineman in the NFL. Hope he stays healthy and anchors that line for a decade
@@BratatoChipBitch please, he basically said 'Go Lions.' 'Beat those 49ers' is not some crazy prediction that didn't even come close. Penei went from 3-13-1 to a 3 point loss in the NFC championship game in THREE seasons. Dude is the best tackle in the NFL and is gonna be a menace for years to come.
Everyone on that team loves Penei, every single player. Coaches too. Dude plays with so much intensity and passion, but you can see the fun he is having too! One of the core pieces to the Lions changing their entire culture into a winning one. Hope Penei sticks around until he is done playing football.
Came back after Penei's pay day to say Detroit LOVES you fam. You represent us in every way. Hustle. Grit. Determination. Discipline. Hard Working. You deserved every penny. Also, three years later and I can still confirm PENEI GOT THAT DAWG IN HIM!!!
Penei Sewell in 3 short years has become the most dominant OL player in the NFL. And he is only 22. At the end of next season he will become the highest paid OL in NFL history and he will deserve it. No one dominates the best D linemen like Penei. And he is just growing and getting better. Looking forward to seeing him play in the NFC Championship game tomorrow evening. No doubt he will play lights out. What a pick..
@@shooterman52jc59lol thanks for the laugh bro. He literally graded out as the best OL in the league this year. In his 3rd season. That's a little better than "good".
Three years later the Lions are one game away from the Superbowl!!!!!!! He's been such a huge part of this turnaround. He's become the top Offensive Lineman in the NFL!!!!
Penei has by far surpassed all the expectations that pretty much any Lions fan had for him when he was drafted. Don’t get me wrong, we all knew he was going to be very good, but he is already the best Tackle, Right or Left, in the NFL. He is also an amazing leader and he does amazing things on the field that remind all of us how athletic and impactful an individual offensive lineman can be. Looking forward to the Lions signing this guy to a lifetime contract and Penei leading this team for the next ten years.
Thee best pick lions history. Sorry Barry, If you had this monster as your O-lineman you'd have at least another three thousand yards added to your career stats. Love you Penie ( Mufasa) Sewell
What speaks volumes to me is he is a sure fire 1st round pick and instead of going to the draft in Cleveland, he elected to stay at home with his family and friends to see where he was selected. When he is on the phone with Lions GM Brad Holmes, he tells Penei he wants him in their pride and he is a big part of what they (the Lions) are doing going forward. Very excited for the Lions future regardless of the outcome of tonight’s NFC Championship!
The Whole of America Samoa are ALL Lions fans so we got energy going out to the Football Universe for positive win vibes. 😊GO PENEI, BRAD, SHEILA,DAN,AG,BEN etc al. GO LIONS!!
Life long Lions fan here. It's one thing to have an anchor potential pro bowl wall/road grater on our line for years. It's another to have an outstanding human being with character and integrity. He has both in spades and I feel like we won the lottery with this kid.
Hey man... WE LOVE YOU. THANK YOU. - Just another humbled Lions fan who grew up with 42 years of the SOL. Your journey is similar to ours as a fan base. Collectively, now we 're HERE. THANK YOU.
Yes Man and i am so pumped for near all Players that got drafted by Brad and Dan!!Look at Amon-Ra our Workhorse,Heart of the Offense!Or TransportaLaPorta this goodie Boyyy whith his amazing Talent!And Brian Branch this great Safety or Iffy who had his breakout last Season!And Jahmyr??He is so good,I could see him the whole Day running through the Defenses!Alim McNeill this Bulldozer,very good Pick!Josh Paschal and Brodric Martin will improve in the next Seasons and Jack Campbell will do it in the next Season!A little bit disappointing is maybe Levi Onwuzurike,because I have had so high Hopes on him!But maybe he will have his Breakout one Time!Think about Haason Reddick!!He was a clear Bust after the first 3 Years in Arizona but then in the 4th Year-BOOM!!He exploded and was a baller from this Time on!Maybe Levi become the next Haason Reddick??I hope so!There are always Players who needs Time to grow and improve!Okay there are always Busts in this League,too!But Levi isn`t one of this Busts,I know it!
Bru...when this young brother said " You Won't Regret It" dude, I felt that! I love my city, I love my Lions! We got the best young GM in football! Do it Mr. Holmes! dEtROit VS EVeRYbOdY!
First of all - “thank you Penie for you and your family”. Secondly, you are a building block the Lions did need. All of Michigan and Lions fans are lucky you are a Lions. Writing this two days before the NFC Championship, I figure your presence is a big part of why the Lions are here in 2023-24. Again very thankful #Grit
2:45 “you inspire me a lot” The importance of hometown heroes, some people will never understand how much it means. There is a way out , you have to work for it.
Who woulda thought some kid from Samoa would be the guy to start the new chapter for the Lions. Congrats to Penei on becoming the highest paid offensive lineman in history.
Two years later, this man has done something in Detroit, NO ONE thought would happen. It hadn't in my 31 years, at least. Thank you Penei, from the bottom of this salty Detroit Lions lifer's heart.
He's in the right city! Perfect fit for him and the city! He will take care of his mama now. They gonna chant his name in the D! One Pride! Welcome Home Big Sew!
Been a Lions fan for over 30 years. This man has embodied Detroit on the football field and has become not only the best OT in the NFL, but also one of the best leaders I've ever seen. Watching this again, 3 years later, makes me so happy. So freaking happy.
Fathers pride is like no other. I played college ball at a smaller level then went in the military and when I graduated boot camp my dad for the first time told me he was proud of the man I've become. Big difference but I feel this. Welcome big man! Michigan is the shit.
as a lions fan i cant wait for this guy to hit the field. a man who grew up with nothing but love and family now is able to pay back his family and help the lions rebuild!
I hope the lions keep him forever this man has changed the game of football and he is the most influential during speeches and they strike me through the screen
I've watched this so many times, I'm so glad and happy my Detroit Lions were able to draft him. He made me absolutely love my Lions again. He is the corner stone of my Lions. I absolutely love this family and all that they are.
Eagles fan here, super stoked to get DeVonta Smith, but man this kid is so real and will be such a stud one day. One of the best first round picks in a while. Lions may finally be on their way.
One of my favorite lion players of all time. Bros been added to a GOAT List of Lions... "Barry Sanders, Calvin Johnson, Penei Sewell" Dudes career is already been nuts
Cheese Head fan here. I am hoping for a good season from both teams. Much love to the brother, all the way from NEW ZEALAND. KIA KAHA my polynesian brother.
As on OR fan. We loved this kid and his family. His dad is a high school football, a mentor to so many including his kids. He’s going to the perfect situation. This kid is hungry. He’s going to everything asked of him as well as give back to the Detroit community. Also, his brother Noah is right behind him. He’s already a star. Keep an eye out for him.
Just watched this again after he signed his extension. I was pumped when we picked Penei, I had no idea just how lucky we were. First ballot for sure. National treasure. Thank you big dawg
Seeing my uso here tear up when he said “ Mama we almost there” made me tear up as well because we island boys 684&685 knows the struggle our parents go through for us♥️🇦🇸🇼🇸
Born and raised a Detroit Lions fan and as such, I've experienced some of the worse, like 0-16, Barry's retirement, Calvin's catch that was ruled no catch and the list goes on. For the 40 years I have endured heartaches seasons after seasons. The drafting of Pendi Sewell brings happiness where there was once sadness. He brings an undeniable passion to succeed. He brings an unbelievable athleticism, and above all else he brings a love for family. Detroit we finally have something to smile about.
Watched this for the 1st time today and wow 😭 how can you not love this dude & his family?! He’s a huge part of why the Lions are in the NFC Championship game tonight!

“You won’t regret it.” - best moment in lions history
“You won’t regret it”
Now he’s a captain who we want as a franchise player damn right we didn’t regret it
He’s only 23…and he’s going to get better!! That’s the scary part.
And now he’s a franchise player. I’m not crying, you’re crying.
I’ve been a lions fan my whole life. Through the ups, and downs I never thought I would see the day where the lions are legitimate contenders. This is the first time I’ve ever seen this video and I’m so happy this guy is cornerstone of this team. One pride baby, let’s go!
This NEVER gets old as a Lions Fan... THIS GUY - CHANGED LIONS FOOTBALL...
I always come back to dis video but Frs I got old comments since he got drafted
The key for sure
22 years young and only getting better ❤
I wanted him for the Giants so bad. Should’ve traded up for him instead of traded down for Toney. Then we never would’ve drafted Neal too.
Watch this all the time. Dude changed Detroit for sure
“We almost there mama” I felt that
Me too man I’m glad my team took him great personality can’t wait to have him on my lions 💙
💯💯
When did he say that?
@@NoorAB23 9:01
Fr bro they had to cut it because he started crying real sh t thou
This guy helped change the trajectory of the Lions franchise. Dude just turned 23, is already a captain of his team and arguably the best lineman in the NFL. Hope he stays healthy and anchors that line for a decade
Y’all made the right choice
From This moment.....To the NFC championship, good Luck Penei. Beat those 49ers.
Aged like milk

@@BratatoChipAye, you’re a hell of a loser. Congrats on 5 wins this year.
You ain't real if you didn't feel that "we almost there mama"
This pick changed the entire culture of the Detroit Lions
This hits different January 2024. Penei is a DAWG
Everyone on that team loves Penei, every single player. Coaches too. Dude plays with so much intensity and passion, but you can see the fun he is having too! One of the core pieces to the Lions changing their entire culture into a winning one. Hope Penei sticks around until he is done playing football.

He deserves every penei
He doesn't know it yet. He is the first to lead this team back to redemption.
Ragnow was the first piece imo
He knows it. LETS GOOOOO!!!!
Back? have we ever been there?
@@16nman before Super Bowl era
Lions always been trash
Who’s watching this after he got PAID
Here
11:02 is why I’m ok with every Penny he gets
I am. He's the man!!!!!
Do you have a problem with excellence being rewarded? IMO Penei is the most valuable player on the Detroit Lions. Irreplaceable. Period.
❤ He deserves and is worth it!...brother you are Detroit lion's

Hes good but wirfs is the better young tackle
@@shooterman52jc59lol thanks for the laugh bro. He literally graded out as the best OL in the league this year. In his 3rd season. That's a little better than "good".
@@shooterman52jc59move on hater
Pay the man! He deserves every penny the Lions will give him in his next contract. I hope he spends his entire career in Detroit. Just like Decker…
@@shooterman52jc59 Wirfs and Penei are both from the same Level I think
Three years later the Lions are one game away from the Superbowl!!!!!!! He's been such a huge part of this turnaround. He's become the top Offensive Lineman in the NFL!!!!
You could hear Brad screaming in excitement over the phone 😂
It really felt like a family atmosphere on both sides.
Penei has by far surpassed all the expectations that pretty much any Lions fan had for him when he was drafted. Don’t get me wrong, we all knew he was going to be very good, but he is already the best Tackle, Right or Left, in the NFL.

One of the best picks in Detroit lions history
Thee best pick lions history. Sorry Barry, If you had this monster as your O-lineman you'd have at least another three thousand yards added to your career stats. Love you Penie ( Mufasa) Sewell

So I’m not the only one that cried watching this lol, love the lions! ❤❤
HE CHANGED DETROIT FOOTBALL!!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!!
Life long Lions fan here. It's one thing to have an anchor potential pro bowl wall/road grater on our line for years. It's another to have an outstanding human being with character and integrity. He has both in spades and I feel like we won the lottery with this kid.
How often do you draft a first round talent and a first round personality all at once?
I hope the lions dont waste his talent because theres alot of teams who wish they could get a guy like that
@@RX780a best right tackle in football in 3 years id say the lions have utilized him well
This aged well. Sewell is a fucking DUDE
Welcome to Detroit my brother, I hope you buy a ton of Tropical smoothie franchises
Today Penei’s second child was born. Congratulations to the best tackle in the league and the cornerstone of the NEW Detroit Lions🎉🎉🎉
"The Detroit Lions did not regret it."
You won't regret this. Best quote ever!!! We definitely haven't, Penei! #OnePride

You make Arlene Sewell proud 💪🏽🏈🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸

We definitely didn't regret it Go Lions
Well I became a fan of Mr. Sewell (Sr.), what a wise man.
This man is the true backbone of the Lions! So glad they paid him. Let’s Go!
Such a solid pick! Dan said it best. He's a building block.
There is something so emotionally uplifting about seeing someone blessed with something they worked so hard for!😊
Facts 💯

Straight up from the moment we got Sewell the organization took its first turn to get on pace 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Yes sir! Glad my team did something right. Lions will be known for their O-Line by this man.
You called it. The people movers are the best in the business. Go Lions!

How do we have such awesome people on our team? Sewell, St Brown, Goff. What a team
Just came across this and just wanted to say that in my lifetime he’s the best individual linemen I’ve ever seen.
I felt that father hugg to the core seein your son live his dream & u see him grow up to be the man he’s born to be i instinly started to cry
Never thought i would cry watching a player get drafted.
What a great family. They are so close and humble God Bless the Sewells
Born and raised a Detroit Lions fan and as such, I've experienced some of the worse, like 0-16, Barry's retirement, Calvin's catch that was ruled no catch and the list goes on. For the 40 years I have endured heartaches seasons after seasons.
The drafting of Pendi Sewell brings happiness where there was once sadness. He brings an undeniable passion to succeed. He brings an unbelievable athleticism, and above all else he brings a love for family. Detroit we finally have something to smile about.
Whoa. As a keen follower of Penei since his Oregon days. Thank you sir, this really puts everything in perspective. Goosebumps
You won't regret it fast forward 2024 he and the lions are one win away from playing in there biggest game of there lives let's do this
Watched this for the 1st time today and wow 😭 how can you not love this dude & his family?! He’s a huge part of why the Lions are in the NFC Championship game tonight!
Detroit loves you #58!!! This year was my favorite year as a Lions fan, we have such a bright future. Go Lions 💙
this comment aged poorly. no way that year is your favorite year as a lions fan!
Sewell IS the Lions, he embodies everything we’re about
He was right, we don’t regret it one bit, he’s our franchise corner stone player fr🦁
This guy's got that Lion in him. A beast of a player
"You won't regret it."
We haven't regretted you for a second, Penei.
Damn I love his whole family now. Go Lions 🦁
You won’t regret it indeed! Guy changed our whole team! Go LIONS
He really inspires me best of luck Penei. Damn this video hit my feelings
Great attitude, great family and he still has goals he has not reached! All the makings of a hall of famer...
