This term was first used in 2007 at the start of the NFL season following the hype of the draft. It can be used and applied in a variety of ways. At its inception, the term was used to refer to any overhyped, overrated, and underperforming individual. However, at present day, the term has evolved to also include individuals who "drop the ball" literally, figuratively, or both, especially when said drop results in extreme disappointment.
