He played college football at Georgia and was picked in the 2015 NFL Draft and was named as the AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year in his rookie season. Todd has some pretty interesting inks on his body. Let us take a look at them and the meanings behind them.

1. ‘Skull’ Tattoo

Tattoo: The left shoulder of the footballer contains a tattoo of a skull on it that is filled with a vine that covers the rest of his shoulder.

Meaning: The tattoo is associated with the passage of time and how we all die in the end. The tattoo goes along with the next tattoo that he has, of a banner below it to convey its idea.

2. ‘Banner and Loyalty’ Tattoo

Tattoo: There is a banner below the skull tattoo on his left upper arm with the same vines in the background. There is a quote tattooed on the banner that reads, “Time is what we want most, but what we use worst”. The word “Loyalty” is also tattooed on the backside of his left upper arm vertically.

Meaning: The quote on his arm is a motivational quote by William Penn that goes along with the skull to represent the idea to make the most of every moment in life as it is too short to waste.

3. ‘Trust’ Tattoo

Tattoo: Todd’s right bicep contains a line tattooed on it that reads, “Who can I trust” along with swirly line below it. There are also two doves tattooed above the line.

4. ‘Hands’ Tattoo
