Grackles without Cody Prentice again

Cody Prentice RB
Grackles

Cody Prentice is unavailable. 6 games. The backup inherits the job for now.

He has 2,573 yards from scrimmage in four seasons, and twenty-four touchdowns. He has never had a year like it. For two clubs.

Twenty-seven, and Reykjavik, Iceland before that. He is popular in a way that does not show up anywhere useful. He was a late bloomer who did not start a game until he was a college senior. In another life he fixed diesel engines with his uncle.

Grackles are 3-4 through seven weeks. Knuckles Yelverton is in year four of it. There is one year left on the deal.

He learned to cook properly during a rehab year and now does it for the offensive line, and always has.

This feature ran in the paper in week 7 of 2006. The rest of the season is there too.
