I didn't realize John Kuhn was with the Saints now. Hope he gets a shot in a game soon.

Needed Brees to throw the TDs rather than hand it off. Just needed 1 throw.

which is how I knew about Kuhn right away. Luckily Diggs and OBJ just sucked, so I held on.

make $6900.00 a week. is that for the entire year or just for the football season? I can't imagine it's only for the season as that adds up to 48000.00 from August to December.

I'm fairly sure the practice squad doesn't exist during the offseason. But there are training camp stipends for guys on the preseason rosters.

16 weeks * $6,900 per week is $110,400.

That seems pretty okay to me, and even better for a 22 year old. Maybe they get paid for preseason and podtseason, too?

that figure would be 7 weeks pay. They do only get paid through the season, but that's over 110K. Good money for five months.

Finance. He added a bunch of deductions so that's the Adjusted Gross Income.

After watching the Lions get stuffed repeatedly on the goal line on Sunday because they don't have a fullback, why wouldn't they have signed him? Because they're the FUCKING LIONS!

Great to hear! For a league that doesn't really like using a fullback, the Monday Night Football announcers sure were going on and on about how the Giants struggle at the goal line because they don't have a fullback.
