'17 PA DT Kurt Hinish (Notre Dame Signee)

[Crazy Balki]

OT, but brother, Donovan, and Aidan Keanaaina are literally the only players I haven’t read or heard a thing about this fall camp. Does anyone have any info?

Donovan has similar issues as Kurt, he's just not going to get very big. Key difference is that Kurt HAD TO play in 2017-18, because there was literally nobody else. It was him and Jerry Tillery or Jon Bonner at NT those 2 years.

I think Donovan is gonna end up being the #3 3T behind Mills and Rubio on the depth chart, so he may see some time, but mostly garbage time.

With Kahuna, I think he's one of those guys who fell behind after a major injury. He was in position to be a major part of the NT rotation in 2022, but then he got injured and missed the year. Now, Onye has jumped him and he and Cross are the primary 2 NTs.

Nice to see him getting some time in a playoff game. Had no idea he even made a roster!

 

[Crazy Balki]

He's been in the 2-deep with the Texans the past 2 years. He's been a very solid interior player for them.

Came up with a sack and then the very next play he just missed a TFL.

Sack was impressive! Very nice play. Go Hinish!

I'll never forget him being an absolute bull in the win vs Clemson. Guys like him that get taken late in the draft/UDFA are as important as the big name players in building a solid roster.

What would he be getting paid?
All the whinging about college players getting what they deserve it’s the dudes on the edge of a NFL roster that should be getting a lot more

This has him in the last year of a 3 year, $2.6M contract. Making approx. $1M this season. He’ll get paid next season I would think

This here says $870K. So, less than a proven QB or a five-star would get in NIL these days. But probably more than a guy like him makes.
