Australian Blake Muir gets taste of Super Bowl with Falcons

HOUSTON -- The past year has been a dizzying journey for Blake Muir.

Without taking the field in an official game, the offensive guard from Australia has collected paychecks from three different NFL teams and earned a trip to Super Bowl LI with the Atlanta Falcons.

A few months after graduating from Baylor University, Muir signed with the San Francisco 49ers and went through the offseason program, training camp and preseason only to be cut on the eve of the regular season. He landed on his feet, signing with the Green Bay Packers practice squad a week later.
