Nine former Missouri Tigers embarked on potential NFL careers Friday and several made early headlines, including tight end Martin Rucker, who has a practice video up on the Cleveland Browns website.

There is also a story about running back Tony Temple and his chances of making the squad. The story notes that he’s the smallest of the five tailbacks at this weekend’s tryout.

There are also interviews with Rucker and Missouri coach Gary Pinkel under the mutimedia portion of the page.

One final tidbit…

There’s a poll on the front of the Cleveland Browns website that asks which undrafted free agent Browns fans are most interested in seeing, and cornerback Darnell Terrell leads the polling. I’m sure Missouri fans have something to do with that.

If you’re in California, or have plans to go to California this weekend, you can see Tyler Luellen and Greg Bracey at the San Diego Chargers mini camp, which is open to the public.
