Today's Second-String Punter Update

I might just have to make Sav Rocca his own category, the media loves writing about him so much.

Here's today's update in the SavStakes:

The Eagles signed a potential future Hall of Famer this off-season, and nobody seemed all that excited about it.

Yes, Saverio Rocca was that good when he played Australian Rules football in his native country. He couldn't shop for groceries in Melbourne without being recognized by the fans who admired his work with the Collingwood Magpies and North Melbourne Kangaroos, the two teams that employed him during his illustrious 15-year career.

It also sound like the guy was born to be a Philadelphia Eagle:

Rocca said he was disappointed that he never won a championship in Australia.

"I played in three playoffs and lost the first game in each playoff," he said. "I never experienced a winning playoff game. I didn't want to play 15 years and not experience the winning feeling of a playoff game. Hopefully, that can transpire over here."

In all seriousness though, if we're really looking to make a punter change, why not give this guy a tryout:

Pittsburgh Steelers released veteran punter Chris Gardocki less than a month after selecting Baylor punter Daniel Sepulveda in the NFL draft.

Gardocki, a 16-year veteran and Pro-Bowl selection in 1996, never saw a punt blocked and averaged a career-best 45.7 yards per kick last season.
