Despite Awful Finish, Devlin Hodges Considers Himself ‘Very Blessed’ For This Year’s Opportunities

No matter how you slice it, 2019 has been a fairly remarkable year for the man they call Duck. Sure, he may have set an FCS record for the most passing yards thrown in a career, but if we’re being honest, we understand that doesn’t really mean much.

The 6’1” Devlin Hodges went undrafted. He was not signed after the draft, though he was invited to a few rookie minicamps. He attended the first with the New York Giants, but was not signed. The Pittsburgh Steelers held theirs later, and elected to sign him, releasing Brogan Roback as the fourth quarterback.
