The calendar is turning to the end of July, which in the NFL world means the start of training camp. Even though the season doesn’t begin until September 8, teams around the league will open training camp this week. And for a dozen Cougars, that means a chance to make an NFL roster.
The list of Cougs in the NFL looks a little different this year. Some NFL mainstays like Deone Bucannnon and Joe Dahl are currently free agents. Bucannon won a Super Bowl with Tampa Bay last season while Dahl was released by the Detroit Lions in March.
