Pure Curiosity

This question come purely out of curiosity and personal fandum.  It has NOTHING to do with the current state of the Eagles.

What has....or will become of Tony Hunt.

I don't believe he ever got a true shot in the NFL.  He never got any real action untile he was thrust into the roll of fullback which was completely foreign to him.

I always liked what I saw from the guy.  Pretty good short yardage back (Chicago goaline situation withstanding).

He was always the type of back that got stronger as a game went on when he played for Penn State.   Pretty good pass catcher.  Smart kid.  Humble. 

He was the Senior Bowl MVP two years ago.

I guess my questions are:

Will he get another shot in the NFL?   Will he be invited to a camp this year?   Does he have too much game experience to sign on a practice squad?  Are we really saying he is not better than any of the scrub backs currently in the NFL.

I am a Penn State fan and a huge Eagles fan.  I followed Hunt's carreer at PSU and was psyched when the Eagles drafted him.
