Quote:One of the more interesting developments revolved around offensive lineman Tyler Shatley, who initially the team planned to release and add to their practice squad, but it sounds like the coaching staff fought to keep him on the roster. It also appears that when word got out Shatley could be cut, there were a handful of teams interested in claiming him.


"There were some initial inquiries about (trading), and nothing firm. I got some other calls, just to find out some character stuff on him and to see if he’s healthy and stuff like that," Caldwell said about Shatley. "Those were obviously some red flags. Gus and I spent a lot of time last night just about it talking philosophically and talked to (Offensive Line Coach) Luke Butkus and Luke was dire that he did not want to lose him."

To be completely honest I didn't even realize he was on the squad until recently. Its obvious there are some teams out there that think he could develop into a fine player.
