Matching 32 Marvel Cinematic Universe characters with each NFL team

Washington Commanders – Ultron
Former Washington Commanders player Darrell Green was one of the fastest men in NFL history. So much so that he won the NFL’s fastest-man competition four times in his 19-year career. Green said he wants to run a 4.5-second 40-yard dash at age 60. Unlike a lot of sports, a lot of the great defensive players don’t get credit for what they do. Green’s stats may not show it, but he was incredible. Quarterbacks were scared to throw to anyone in his area, a testament to how good he was.
Ultron had a short stint in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but that doesn’t make him a bad villain. Really look back at everything Ultron did. His time may have been limited, but he caused a lot of damage. He caused the death of tons of people, had a hand in causing damage within the Avengers and destroyed a country.
Despite all that, Ultron isn’t remembered fondly because the movie numbers weren’t there. Sometimes the numbers don’t show the effect that a person causes. Ultron and Darrell Green are prime examples of this.
