Complete practice squad recap (All NFL Teams)

Connor_Hughes : 8/31/2014 10:43 pm
Some still haven't released all of their names yet, but here's a list of every team that has

These players that are on the list can be signed to other teams. For example, if the Giants want a player off the Eagles practice squad, they can have them, they just need to activate them to their 53-man roster.

Most teams have not filled the full 10 players just yet.

Not one team has signed Michael Sam to their practice squad, not even the Rams.
Can't say I am at all suggesting that his sexuality is affecting

anything but it seems weird that the guy can't even make a practice squad roster. Just based on desire to "show people" alone, he has to be an option that is better than one guy on one team at that position. I'd dump one of our PS guys for him right now.
Maybe..

I still think his lack of special team play makes him a waste to develop...but im sure the attention has something to do with it.
Should be interesting...

Jacksonville and KC sharing an entire practice squad!

(Looks like that's KC's PS listed twice)
Very few names

That Gmen again did not sign one player cut from other teams to their active 53 roster?

Too bad because we have a lot of deadwood at the bottom that you would think could be upgraded.

Yes. I thought we'd dump Brown for one of the OL suggested by Sy. I guess the only way we add someone now is if Schwartz goes on short term IR.
Michael Sam

Just read a piece about Buffalo Bills center's Eric Wood's comment on why he thinks no team has picked up Sam, not even for the practice squad.

He says it's not homophobia, but a team's unwillingness to have ESPN or any other sports spokesmen make him the story. It would be too distracting and they don't want that. In fact, Woods generalizes and blames ESPN for the little interest in Sam because they'd always be on the story like flies on a corpse.

St. Louis has only signed 5 to their PS so far so the possibility still exists.

Herm Edwards on ESPN this morning says the problem with Sam is that he doesn't play STs. Unless you're a starter that puts you at a disadvantage.
