Joe Gaiter: What message do you have for any NFL team reading this article?
Malik Duncan: I just ask for teams to take a more of a look at Me. I have great film I don’t give up 6 points or the deep ball, rarely give up catches but most importantly I’m a learner and a winner and I’m always trying to compete. I would say it is tough to find corners who are willing to take on linemen and make one on one tackles with backs, I just ask take more of a look at me please
