From Undrafted To Active Roster, Tyler Catalina Makes The Cut

Former Georgia offensive lineman Tyler Catalina earned his spot on the Washington Redskins’ final roster after entering the league as an undrafted free agent.

As NFL rosters became finalized over the weekend, many players anxiously waited to hear of their fate for the 2017 season.

For Tyler Catalina, the risk of not reaching the NFL regular season might have been higher than most. Catalina, an undrafted rookie out of Georgia, was relieved to find out that he had been chosen for the Redskins’ final 53-man roster.

“It’s an unreal feeling, it’s every kid’s dream growing up," Catalina told Redskins.
