#53

We practiced yesterday for the first time since the roster was set. Coach Del Rio congratulated us all for making it. Having been out there the last month with 80 guys it was kinda crazy to see so few out there now. I had been thinking about changing my number but I decided not to because #53 made the 53... it's symbolic now. Keith has always been talking #55 so I started thinking about that. He's one of my best friends and it would've been cool to wear the same number, especially when we played each other we could see which 55 had the better game. But 53 became very meaningful to me so I'm not changing it.

  Congrats again on making the final cut. Looking forward to seeing number 53 all over the field knocking people on their backsides. =) And hopefully even see you find the endzone on occassion, see you run a pick for a TD would be awesome!
