Final Thought:
That’s 48 players I’m confident in right now. I’m leaving room for five more spots, which will be determined based on how things shake out in the final preseason games and practice notes.
I appreciate your time, I know it’s very important to you and spending some with me is very much appreciated.
Do it because you love it, not because it loves you.
