I even chat gpt’d this and it couldn’t come up with a better example than Gainwell

This is why I keep a list of "People whose names are too specific to be a coincidence"

If he scores, gains seven or more yards, or he gets a first down, our whole bar yells “and he certainly does…gain well!!”

I love nominal determinism sports names. There were linebackers in the NFL named Mercilus and Angerer, it doesn’t get any better than that

In the early morn of the game, alas, he was the mere urchin, Kenneth Gainpoor. But, he overcame the fortunes of his station, and the rest is a yarn for the ages.

I love nominative determinism in running backs, the Eagles have Swift, the Niners had Hasty…

Haven't thought of you in years. Though not a fan of his, in retrospect I think you were a little hard on Joe Morgan.

Can I suggest a Tight End?
