Real-life football is here for our consumption and it will be through February. The high school regular season begins next week, college football set to kick off the following weekend. And then from there, the NFL season will begin on September 7.
Until then, though, the NFL preseason is here to pass the time, a schedule loaded with former Kentucky standouts knocking the rust off ahead of regular season action next month. 31 former Wildcats are on training camp rosters, some fighting for their 53-man team lives and others firmly established as core pieces of their respective franchises.
