UDFA was in camp with the Patriots, cut on Monday after fumbling in a preseason game.

Omg hes not a corner!?!?!?!
Being a Big Ten guy and never hearing of him...that doesn't bode well.
Trolls are people too.
The Pats* apparently partially guaranteed his deal, which they are on the hook for now. Must have been a priority FA signing.
Shawn, to your point, according to what I read, he split carries at Indiana, FWIW.
Sounds like purely a camp body who won't make the team. We already have some bums who won't ever do anything in the NFL (Poole, Hall). It says his production does not match his physical skills. Like Jimmy Johnson and Big Tuna say, the #1 part of evaluation should be production at past level. Being big, fast and strong but not productive is a pass for me.
Steelers sign Houston.
(Yawn)
I wonder, who will they bring in to replace him at RB next week?
Where is Felix Jones...He would be a nice cheap option...I thought he did well for us in spot duty last year.
I feel like Jones never was very appreciated. He gave us some production. No idea why no one wants to sign him.Originally Posted by legend of polamalu
He's worth a flyer...

Pretty impressive workout numbers...needs serious coaching...
4.46 40 yard dash
24 reps of 225 lbs
40 inch vertical
11ft broad jump
Not bad for not having to expend a draft pick...all the physical tools you would want...
Needs serious coaching...
Exactly. Bell and Blount should not be getting many touches at all the rest of the preseason - we know what they can do and they're going to carry the load during the season. Keep the tread on those tires, if you will.
