[Tman44]

Congratulations to VFLs LaTrell Bumphus and Jerome Carvin for making it through training camp and earning NFL roster spots! Bumphus made the Seahawks team while Carvin joins Trey Smith in KC. Good luck to the other VFLs picking up on practice squads.

Really happy for those guys who persevered through lots of hardships and uncertainty.

I read an article about Bumphus in his hometown paper - 6 years, 3 coaches, COVID experience, significant injury, undrafted but kept grinding and now has a roster spot. He also seemed to come through it with a great attitude.

Good luck to both!

I wish We has Bumphus another year, I believe he's just scratching the surface of His ability. I wouldn't be shocked if He found Himself in thier d-line rotation.

Nope, you are correct. You can also hit the link I posted in the first message. It shows players from UT on rosters, not practice squad players.

I believe that is the most since Eric Berry's class.

I believe that is the most since Eric Berry's class.

And we going to add several more from this 2023 team

My bad - I thought your link was just about Carvin and Bumphus. If UT keeps putting players in the league at this rate, I may have to invest in the Sunday Ticket!

More vols on Detroit than any other team. Looks like i have my second favorite NFL team to follow this season.

We can rag on Lyle all day long but there are a lot of names from his days on there.

I was surprised we didn’t have more people drafted. Good for them!

All the more reason to rag on him. Plenty of talent with nothing to show for it. What a waste.

Really happy for Princeton Fant. I was surprised by his making the PS in that I hadn't read any projections that he was being considered. Im thrilled for him and actually think with a break or two he could make it onto a active roster someday. He is very very talented and versatile in my opinion.

Jerome Carvin reverted to IR yesterday for the Chiefs and will either be outright released or injury settlement, correct? If so, means he was injured during training camp maybe? Bummer for a good guy.

So Carvin at least will be getting paid. The Chiefs cannot outright release him. An injury settlement is on the table, but they can also keep him on the IR all season. This basically gives him a redshirt year. Either way, it is much better than being a camp cut.

Thanks for posting. What am I missing...don't we have more? I don't even see Trey Smith on that list from the link.
edit: My bad. For some reason only part of the list loaded the first time.

AJ Johnson was robbed out of millions of dollars.

Princeton Fant will work hard and find his way into a roster.

Calloway must have gotten hurt. He balled out for the Saints

J. Jennings seems underpaid

I wouldn't be shocked if His contract is reworked soon, but league owners are notoriously cheap and stupid.
