Ross did not have great hands. He didn't have good hands.
I don't know about Cox. Maybe his hands are better. He's certainly not as athletic as Ross.

All that said, there are 1000 guys not on NFL rosters that could be without anyone noticing a difference. And the last player kept by each team, at each position, is not equal to the other last players.

I read that he has the biggest hands in the NFL, with them ranging 11.75 inches from thumb to finger which is absolutely INSANE (that's longer than a piece of printer paper)

yikes, that's a big ol mitt. I can palm a basketball if it's humid out and I have 9.75" hand. A full 2 inches more and a football probably feels like a softball in his hand.

Rotimi signed with Arizona Hotshots of the Alliance of American Football league. It's a new league starting late winter after the Superbowl. A lot of Virginia schools represented in the league but only one player from ODU. FWIW Michael Vick is a coach in the league.

Pascal is my favorite ODU athlete of all time. He always shows respect for the game, his team, opponents, and fans. He seemed to truly enjoy his experience at ODU. And he was a fierce competitor.

Im so mad he was released by the Skins and ended up with the Colts.

I like Pascal, but he may not last past this year with the Colts. He stunk when given a lot of reps against the Patriots and lost his 3/4 WR position to newly signed Inman. He rarely gets a target now. He is the kick returner but rarely gets the chance to run it back. Colts also have a high WR draft pick on IR. Unless he picks it up, he is probably on the bubble for next year.

Great double move by Pascal for the TD. I loved watching that on SC a little earlier tonight.

Monarchs Playing Pro Ball
The son of a friend who lives in Gulfport and apparently gets Panthers games there said that Heinicke came in at the end of the first half to throw a hail mary and completed a long pass. I checked the stats and apparently it was not in the end zone but he was 1/1 for 33 yards. They lost by 6 points so a TD might have won them the game and maybe a Sportscenter mention for TH.

With Cam's shoulder injury getting worse with each week, TH has become the designated hail mary passer at the end of each half. If/when the Panthers lose one more game, I wouldn't be surprised to see them shut down Cam for the rest of the season, which would give TH some valuable playing time. Although if Rivera is worried about his job security (and he probably is), that might alter that thinking.

What I'm reading and hearing here in central NC is that Newton will likely start their last three game unless the shoulder becomes much worse. But I would love to see TH get a chance.

Heinicke may get significant playing time the next two weeks.

I never wish injury on anyone, but I do hope TH gets the increased PT
