Rebels Follow NFL Dreams

A total of 12 Rebels from last year's team have already reached the next level, either by draft or free agent contract, and a few more are still working towards that goal. OL Reid Neely (AP photo below) and DL Marcus Tillman were invited to attend the St. Louis Rams Rookie Mini-Camp over the weekend, in hopes of leaving with a free-agent deal. Neither were immediately signed (see the Rams' official site for those that were), but the workouts with other teams continue. Other 09 Rebs trying out for NFL teams include Daverin Geralds, Preston Powers and Joshua Shene.
