INDIANAPOLIS -- This is my first week as the new Indianapolis Colts beat writer for The IndyStar, and as I rejoin an NFL beat, I can't stop thinking about this crazy league and its many young men chasing their dreams.
I'm transported back to my first NFL training camp, where I'm covering the Chicago Bears in 2015 and my head was spinning.
But so was his.
Cam Meredith was an undrafted wide receiver who grew up in the Chicago area and played at a small local college. He was one of 90 men out there, a cute offseason story at a training camp where he had seemingly no chance to make a position group with Pro Bowler Alshon Jeffrey, first-round pick Kevin White and steady veteran Eddie Royal.
