Darren Heerspink knows that there are no guarantees in the NFL.

And next week, the 2002 Lynden Christian graduate will begin his professional career fighting for a roster spot with the Miami Dolphins as an offensive tackle.

“Oh, it’s great and I’m really excited to go down there and see what I can do,” Heerspink said.

At team camp, Heerspink will be one of 80 players to start with hopes of making the 53-man roster. The others will either be cut or make the team’s scout squad.

“Obviously the goal is to make the 53-man roster,” he said. “But anytime you can get to stay, that is a great opportunity.”

he's a big fellow! Hope he is one of our diamonds in the rough and makes the team. It would be nice to have depth on the O'line...
Nice read!
 
In high school, Heerspink and the Lyncs held their own at the 2A level, making the state playoffs in all three of his four seasons.

Did that NOT make sense to anyone else besides me?

Yea man, depth at O-line is going to be huge for us. I like our starters, but it looks pretty thin behind them at this point.
