Kellen Vandergrift has 104 and a story

I have been doing this long enough to have written off men like Kellen Vandergrift, who was cut twice before his twenty-fourth birthday. 104 yards is the league's way of saying nothing is settled. Two of them found the end zone, in game 8 of his season. It counts the same as anybody else's.

Across five seasons: 8,342 yards from scrimmage, 148 touchdowns, eighty-five games. He got to 2,318 once. Not this time.

He turned twenty-six this year. He is from Reykjavik, Iceland. Ask anybody: he is the one the young players actually ask.

The club is 2-6. Ibrahim Calloway is in year seventeen of it.

Vandergrift answers every question in exactly one sentence.

This feature ran in the paper in week 9 of 2014. The rest of the season is there too.
