    It's good to see Nichols is still with the team, he has been the best RB in the preseason the last two years.

    A player with 2 years or less in the NFL make $250,000 a year if they're on the practice squad all season. A veteran with over 2 years can make up to $400,000 a year but the practice squad doesn't count as a year for their pension.

    Glad to see Lew make it. Hurleman had a good camp too.

    I actually feel worse about them bringing back Roberters after reading that. Maybe it's just a smokescreen, downplaying their interest.

    This just popped up in my feed...ever wonder why people sometimes call the "practice squad" the "taxi squad"?

    Manning and Harrison tell us the history (of how the Browns cheated the system...and eventually created the practice squad).
