I heard they are saying he will go in as a Punter? I thought he may be in special teams to run the ball from a kick-off (whatever they call that) - even these roles he will make more money and do 1/8 of the work "on the field" - as [MENTION=16903]Genics[/MENTION]; said though its a different ball game over there - the pool of players coming up and wanting a position is HUGE and they are cut throat with players UNLESS you are the total best of the best - but most even if they get injured will be cut from the squad - and alot simply become free agents looking for a team to pick them up again...
Used to watch a show call "Hard Knocks" - it followed NFL Teams around in their Summer Training Camps when they are picking the squad - they may start with 200 guys and cut it to 60 - some guys don't even make it half way through the 1st day before they are asked to leave - its a crazy cut throat business NFL....League looks like a walk in the park in regards to selection....
