Norwell looks like the high school music teacher who would encourage the young trumpet player not to quit because he has a lot of talent.

Trai Turner looks like a college buddy that's late for class but really wants to tell you that Hip Hop is still alive and how you should come to the show tonight.

Coleman looks like an usher at a wedding/funeral helping the older, overweight grandma to her seat while she fans herself with the event program.

Colin Jones looks like your scuba instructor with an Australian accent who is really excited that this is your first time going and is ready to teach you the basics.

Worley looks like the brand new host at an upscale restaurant that is trying to clean up his life and stay out of trouble. Tre is his homie that keeps trying to pull him back into the streets.

Shaq is the prison guard that connects with Worley in jail after he gets busted for selling drugs and his boy Tre got shot.

Marlowe's career up to this point can be summed up by the word "doubtful".

He was an undrafted rookie last year playing behind vets and Boston take it easy on'em

If we do that doesn't he have to sign for at least a few games? I know he is making the trip but that decision is longer than just this game right? Or do I have that all wrong?

A player called up to the 53 man roster gets paid for 3 games on the active roster, but we can demote him to the PS right away again (exposing him to waivers).  This is what we did last season when we had to call up David Foucault as emergency Oline back up

He was only active for one game.

Here's a helpful blurb about practice squad rules:

Quote

The upside of the practice squad is that if a player is called up to the 53-man regular roster, either by his own team or by another team, he automatically signs a contract with the $450,000 minimum NFL salary. And because three weeks of that contract are guaranteed, even if that player is released, waived or traded before the three weeks are up, being called up comes with a $79,411 guarantee (3/17th of $450,000).
