Captain Murica Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 He called into WFAN to tell them how he took the red eye from Salt Lake to try and get a try out. He was hitting them from 60 on YT, and has a long of 57 in a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heitz Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 I would recommend this book to him (or to anyone here that wants to get the BTS on trying out for an NFL team as a "regular Joe") https://www.amazon.com/Few-Seconds-Panic-Sportswriter-Plays/dp/0143115472 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphadawg7 Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Ha great story. Not that I want Jets to get better, but I think it would be pretty cool story if he got a tryout and was signed. Kind of like how Damon Sheehy-Guiseppi lied to get a tryout with Browns and made their training camp and had a Wade like debut returning a kick for a TD in his first NFL touch. https://www.google.com/amp/s/sports.yahoo.com/amphtml/a-browns-wide-receiver-had-to-lie-in-order-to-even-get-a-tryout-222836625.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillies Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Might be a good kicker but is definitely not a good sign-maker. That's not even 1st grade work. 2 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Formerly Allan in MD Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Don't sign him until we've played the Jets again. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiltonWaddams Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 The actual truth is that the Jets have nothing to lose in giving him a tryout. They can’t go into week 2 with Vedvik. They lost all confidence in the guy and he earned a trip to the unemployment office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 1. Can he coach? 2. Are his eyeballs stationary or removable at night? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaninSarasota Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 sucks that he took a red-eye on his own dime...... http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001053425/article/jets-sign-kicker-sam-ficken-waive-kaare-vedvik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
