UConn in the NFL

Getting a tad off topic here...but Zavier Scott at 26 Y/O is playing his first season in the NFL. What a road; UConn, then Maine and then years on NFL practice squads.

This guy didn't half of what Vic did here, though i felt he was just not used right here. Kid was a grade A athlete.

Happy for the young man, but disappointed he’s not been able to find a starting role.

It seems like it is more difficult than it should be to find the info, but I did see Haynes on the sideline and on the active roster for yesterday, correct?
 

Understood. But NFL has the funky rule where only 48 dress for the game.

And the crazy thing about the healthy scratches from the 53 man roster is they still get a full game paycheck.
 
Yes, he was in blocking for seven snaps on special teams yesterday, so he did play in the game.
Special teams keeps in the league for a long time. I mean look at Matthew Slater when he was with the Pats.
 
Haynes consistently played on special teams snaps this season once he got back into action after being on IR in the early part of the year. He played infrequently with the regular offense, as he was unable to beat out Anthony Bradford at RG. He was inactive for the NFC Championship Game (unusual for him), but thankfully not the Super Bowl.

The Seahawks aren't really content with Bradford despite how good the team is, so there's still opportunity for Haynes to do more with the 'Hawks next season. In fact, there was some speculation that if Bradford had trouble handing the Patriots' stunts in the Super Bowl, Haynes might see some action, as he is somewhat better at recognizing disguised pressures. It never got to that point, but stay tuned.
