Re: App State Alum in the NFL
Has he gotten a tryout? I remember after the draft he was not getting a sniff and I was mildly surprised he did not at least get a tryout with his senior year.Woodstovegang wrote: ↑Tue Aug 30, 2022 4:47 pmLooking for Chandler Staton to get a job at some point.....

Re: App State Alum in the NFL
I'm REALLY surprised he hasn't gotten at least a call. Chandler Stanton has posted a few videos online/Twitter of him staying fresh.
Tag your favorite teams in need of a kicker .... *cough* panthers *cough*
Also, Broncos fans seem a little surprised/dissappointed that Sam Martin was cut... based on Twitter he "wasn't give a fair chance" but looked better in limited opportunities.

Sam Martin is a top 4-6 punter in the league. He won't be teamless for long.

Re: App State Alum in the NFL
Hennigan wasn't cut. He was waived. He is still on Lions roster but on IR so he is still getting paid.
Blair surprises me. Evans and Martin will land somewhere.

Re: App State Alum in the NFL
Kind of stunned he didn't land in NYJ, or a Balt front that needed help.
He followed Robert Salah from San Francisico to New York so Head Coach certainly saw something there. Hope he gets a run somewhere else. You can still see some 49ers highlights from fans saying "I miss Blair" for depth.

Re: App State Alum in the NFL
Undrafted rookie free agent has earned a spot on the Lions roster.
Every season, players who went undrafted are able to showcase their skills in training camp, in an effort to defy the odds and secure a spot on an NFL team's 53-man roster.
For the Detroit Lions, defensive tackle Demetrius Taylor has performed well above expectations.
According to the Detroit Free Press, Taylor has earned a spot on the Lions' initial 2022 53-man roster.
The 23-year-old went undrafted out of Appalachian State.
Detroit's coaching staff immediately took to Taylor, who consistently found himself in Detroit's backfield during camp practices.

Re: App State Alum in the NFL
He apparently signed an injury settlement which means he is free at the end of the designated injury period to sign with another club. He's not on IR.AppStateNews wrote: ↑Tue Aug 30, 2022 6:58 pmHennigan wasn't cut. He was waived. He is still on Lions roster but on IR so he is still getting paid.

Call me crazy, but I think he has a chance to have a bigger impact than Blair at the next level, good luck young man!Black Saturday wrote: ↑Wed Aug 31, 2022 1:34 pmUndrafted rookie free agent has earned a spot on the Lions roster.

Re: App State Alum in the NFL
The interesting thing with the new format to the PS is that it use to be 8 players and is now 16 so there are players who are able to last longer and thus may end up being able to break through for more than they would have 10 years ago. I don't know if he will be better than Blair but the way he plays I could see him sticking around for a while. They are different players and Blair has played for a while.Saint3333 wrote: ↑Wed Aug 31, 2022 2:09 pmCall me crazy, but I think he has a chance to have a bigger impact than Blair at the next level, good luck young man!Black Saturday wrote: ↑Wed Aug 31, 2022 1:34 pmUndrafted rookie free agent has earned a spot on the Lions roster.

Re: App State Alum in the NFL
He is experienced and still good so I would be shocked if they don't offer him. Are there any other teams out there who seem to need a punter? If so, he has leverage but if not then they could get him for what Denver offered, I'm sure.Rick83 wrote: ↑Wed Aug 31, 2022 3:25 pmBUFFALO BILLSBreaking: Former Broncos punter Sam Martin is in Buffalo for a visit

Re: App State Alum in the NFL
Thats huge for them.
I really hope that Hayes and Jolly get a shot this year, both had extremely succesful preseason. Jolly was even the leading tacker for one of the Browns games.

Re: App State Alum in the NFL
I will never forget the year Justin Seaverns led the Dolphins in tackles during the preseason and still got cut. These new rules have definitely helped some of our guys stick on now.DoublySports wrote: ↑Thu Sep 01, 2022 7:53 amThats huge for them.

Our numbers are not bad at all. Virgil and Taylor appeared 50/50 to make the 53 when they signed and they indeed did. Hennigan probably makes the PS if he does not get injured so they keep him on IR. Hayes benefited from USFL and is now sticking. Evans is no shock with how he has played and his injuries so just glad to see him stick and the others are what you expect. Ronald Blair and Colby Gossett are the only ones not listed that I thought might make it but I would think once injuries happen they would both have a good shot to get a call. The new practice squad rules have likely benefited Hayes, Evans, and Jolly or else they would have been on the street.
