Evan Royster Getting Back on the Winning Track

After Evan Royster heard about the Penn State Scandal he immediately tweeted out, "Ah crap..so I lost every college football game I ever played". I'm sure Penn State's all-time leading rusher had a hard time believing everything that was happening to his beloved university. I'm sure a lot of players in Roysters position would be furious and not be able to put this behind them but, Royster is not like most....

Royster has started Redskins training camp with a bang. He looks like a beast out there. His work ethic is like nobody else and you can see its starting to pay off. Royster is number 1 on the Redskins running back depth chart and is taking a majority of the reps with the first team. Mike Shanahan said, "Royster is our running back right now, I like what he is doing out there".  As a long time Redskins fan, I like what Royster is showing so far and would love to see him as the starting running back.

Royster may now have 0 wins in his college career but, I see him helping the Redskins start to pile up a lot of wins in his NFL career . Penn State fans now may have a new favorite NFL team and a guy to stand behind. Its stories like this that make the NFL so exciting. I'm just glad we have Royster in Burgundy and Gold! HTTR...Hail!
