Paramount Pictures has released the trailer for 'Mr. Irrelevant', a biographical sports film based on the true story of John Tuggle, the last player picked in the 1983 NFL draft. Despite his low draft status, Tuggle made the New York Giants roster and even became a special teams player of the year. However, his career and life were cut short by a cancer diagnosis. David Corenswet ('Superman') portrays Tuggle, with Michael Shannon playing legendary coach Bill Parcells. The film is set to release on Christmas Day.
