Kid n Play.   He looks like he's only high schooler and weighs about 180-190 lbs

His Jags Jersey is not listed for sale yet.

<p style="color:rgb(37,37,37);font-familyConfusedans-serif;">Bartu was born in <a class="" href='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seattle,_Washington' title="Seattle, Washington">Seattle, Washington</a> on October 3, 1989. His mother, Esther Sando, was seven months pregnant with him when she immigrated from MonroviaLiberia, to get a better education for herself and family. The name "Joplo" comes from a Liberian warrior, meaning "strength". At the age of one, Joplo moved from Seattle, Washington to Prairie View, Texas, located just outside the <a class="" href='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Houston_area' title="Houston area">Houston area</a>.

<p style="color:rgb(37,37,37);font-familyConfusedans-serif;">He grew up in a low-income neighborhood with his two brothers and three sisters: Precious (oldest sister), Wellington (older brother), Bindu (younger sister), Lawrence (younger brother) and Lula (youngest sister). Joplo's mother signed up eight-year-old Joplo and Wellington for <a class="" href='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pop_Warner_Football' title="Pop Warner Football">Pop Warner Football</a> to keep them occupied. Joplo did not attend a single game. Instead, he went to all of Wellington's games and watched as his older brother became a local star of the league. The next year, his brother moved up to Jr. High, and Joplo, now understanding football, became one of the most talented little league players in<a class="" href='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waller_County' title="Waller County">Waller County</a>.

I see Bernard PIerce was placed on IR to make room for Bartu.

3 undrafted guys man. They all suck, but it can't be easy making that transition. Hopefully they develop over the offseason and not suck in the 2nd half of next year again, if they're still around.
I like jorts.
Dude's got a great name for a Star Wars character.
