SI: The final cut; First-hand account of an NFL career coming to a close

It's a shame he got hurt, best of luck to Tucker though, hopefully he will be able to play again.

Nice find. Touching story and it's kinda' neat to get an inside look at the life of a guy on the bubble. Tuck sounds like a great guy, and I wish him the best.

I wonder if Princeton needs an O-line coach.

Peter King should let other people write his articles more often, IMO.

Perfect observation. I completely agree.

As for the whole 'pun' thing, I understand the poster was trying to be funny. It just wasn't. Maybe if worded differently it could have been. Not a big deal. What strikes me about the references to Subway, though, is that while most people wouldn't recognize Tucker in public (except maybe to guess what he does for a living based upon his size), he's ordering a crappy sandwich from a crappy restaurant (term used very loosely) that a ton of everyday people visit and he knows he's gonna get cut based upon a call that shows up on his cell phone. The article indicates that this fact wasn't lost upon Tucker. Not that it would have stung any less at a five-star eatery.

And as another poster mentioned I, too, enjoyed reading that he'd kept his old car and invested his money.
