NFL tryouts: Got $275?

Post by dead_poet »

For payment of $275, anyone can try out for the NFL. The league admitted that it will consider anyone at least three years removed from high school in response to the publicity stunt launched by Lauren Silbermann, a would-be kicker who had never kicked a football in a competitive setting.

Now, the NFL is touting the results of the Regional Combines by pointing out via press release that 29 players who participated in the Regional Combine and/or the Super Regional Combine (apparently, it can fly) were on NFL rosters to start the 2013 season.
