seriously, the best they could find is a long snapper to take his place?

[Pick Six]

Good for him. He's finally getting a chance to play...

[SportinOne]

Pretty slim pickin's since we can't take from other teams' practice squads and put them on our own.

You should be able to snag someone from the other teams (in this case the Browns) practice squad for your own...seems only fair.

you can as long as you put him on the 53 as they did but of course you know that.

[IndelibleScribe]

Well that kinda sucks but oh well, good for him.

DMac shared a report they had a snap off for the job today. What is going on? A snap off and signing long snappers to the PS. Is the ginger hammer coming down on Brewer?

Michael Sam signed with the Cowboys (Practice Squad)
Sam had a great camp and performed well, I still don't get it how he did not make the team with the Rams...
Duke Ihenacho signed with Washington...

They have the best DL in the league and he doesn't play special teams. not a lot of reason to carry a backup DL if he can't play STs. even if he is a media darling.

That didn't take very long.

I think he got beaten by a 7th round DL
Not sure if the other guy played ST or not...
I'm aware of the circus he was bringing to town, but can't overlook his 3 sacks and I believe 11 tackles both categories led the team...
Being a media darling played against him, unlike Tebow-mania

He's going to Dallas, which is actually a good fit. Their defense is freaking abysmal, so he has a good chance of making the 53. And you know Jerry loves having extra attention.

[delany]

I would rather have the Sam attention than the Johnny Backup attention.

If you do they have to be on your regular roster for the whole season.
