It's pretty impressive that Mosley has been named a team captain already despite only being with the team a few months/not having played a regular season game with the team yet.
Leaders will always rise to the top and shine. You can't just hand that out. It doesn't surprise me one bit to be honest - since he walked in the door I remember hearing about how big of an impact he was having on the field and in the locker room.
Did Gase or the players make these selections, anyone know? Rex Ryan used to change his captains every single week. Usually for any player that had a connection to opposing team or city.
I think you're confusing team captains with game day captains. Rex would always do stuff like have three ex-Pats act as game day captains for the coin toss when playing the Pats, but it was just as a subtle jab for individual games. These are the season-long team captains. Though as mentioned, Rex did disastrously appoint his own captains in 2011, which was the Holmes year. Pretty sure I read somewhere that these captains were player voted.
