I know every year a story like this. I know his chances of making any roster are slim to none. But just once, I wish they would give somebody a shot. How much time can it take? An hour, maybe an hour and a half. I know you do not want to encourage every tom, dick, and harry, but the PR would be great if he were to make it.

Macgarrett Kings Jr., the wide receiver/punt returner from Michigan State and University School, has stood across the street from the Miami Dolphins training facility every day for the past week or so. Typically, Kings, whose four-year college career ended in 2016, stays for an hour, maybe an hour and a half, sometimes two hours.
Dressed in shorts and a sleeveless Michigan State T-shirt, Kings has his cleats hung around his neck, tied at the shoelaces, and holds a piece of cardboard with a handwritten message that reads, “Ready to work. Will work for Free!!!!”
The sign also includes his phone number, and #Humble, #Grateful, #Diamond-in-the-rough, #Blessed, #hungry, #for the love of the game, #Pancho__85 and #spartandawg.
Kings, the 2011 Sun Sentinel Player of the Year, has never seen Dolphins coach Adam Gase or special teams coordinator Darren Rizzi drive by.

There is probably a good reason why none of the 32 NFL teams are interested in Kings. There are thousands of former college footballers like him trying to get their foot in the door. If he believes so passionately in his playing ability, maybe he should try his luck in Canada. It worked for Cam Wake.
 
just give him a chance and see what he can do
