If I would have told you a few weeks ago that linebacker Sean Spence, linebacker Terence Garvin, cornerback Antwon Blake and running back Jordan Todman would all sign free agent contracts with other teams before cornerback Brandon Boykin would, you would have laughed me right off of this site. Well, here we are in the second weekend of the new league year and that’s exactly what has happened.
As far as I can tell, Boykin, who was acquired by the Pittsburgh Steelers during last year’s training camp via a trade with the Philadelphia Eagles, hasn’t even made a free agent visit and that in and of itself is very surprising if indeed true.
