Is it an actual “signing” ?

Or just as n invite to come work out?

How does that situation work, anyone know for sure?
Good point. I thought everyone who made rookie minicamp were people signed who were there as rookies …

I found this

“The main focus of the rookie minicamps is to get the newly drafted players together and integrate them into their new team’s system. The majority of those rookies were either drafted during the 2022 NFL Draft or signed as Undrafted Free Agents (UDFA).

“However, in addition to the drafted players and UDFAs, there are also “try-out” players. Some of these are other UDFAs who the team did not immediately sign but wanted to bring into their rookie minicamp and see how they fit. There are also some veterans who are also competing for a shot to make the roster. In recent years, the number of “try-out” players was heavily restricted due to COVID-19.“

Ill change the header

I wasn’t being critical of your post.
I truly didn’t know the details of how that stuff works.

I didn’t either and don’t beyond what I found. I surmise that this is a way for teams to have camp bodies for their camp bodies to see whom they want for their 90?

I doubt it as all these minicamps are around the same time.

I don’t get why they picked Coan, specifically.

Coan has a great arm but zero speed in running.
He thrives from the shotgun and that is pretty much it.
I'd love the guy if he had any speed so he could step up
but he just is that slow where he cannot.
At Notre Dame it was all Shotgun(deep)

It's just a tryout. If he does well, then we might cut somebody else and sign him to our 90 man roster instead.

He thrives from the shotgun guaranteed
and that is pretty much it indeed
I'd love the guy if he could fly
step up and let rushers go right by
but he just is that slow where he cannot
At Notre Dame he was in Shotgun a lot
