Very excited for him, he did a good job in college. I was surprised that he wasn't drafted but maybe they don't use those picks on kickers? |
Well, I never played nor tried out, but from what I read (being a monstrous sports fan), not many kickers get drafted. There are the occasional few who are perceived as phenoms, but othewise most get "invited" to try out for a free agent contract. Good luck to him!
