I watched almost the entire game, but didn't see his number or hear his name.

I found a box score and saw that he had one tackle, and the East had about 150 passing yards. I suppose if you're a DB, not having your name called a lot can be a good thing.

I watched a little bit of the second half. He was mostly playing deep safety, like not in the picture during the play deep safety, during the portion I saw. He must have been great because they didn’t try to throw on him!!

Certainly more than a kernel of truth in what you are saying.
