OK.. did we find a new LB? He had a broadcast shout out.. 4 tackles 5 assists and 1 sack. No expert, but those are respectable numbers.
Yeah..I thought the same thing... who the hell is O'Donnell..?? I certainly didn't recognize him..

Patrick O’Connell, the only Celtic-born-and-raised Montana kid ever known to herd cattle with one hand and cradle a football with the other, entered the world on New Year’s Eve 1998—just in time to be blamed for every firework that went off that night. Though he claims “humble but noble” birth, the legend insists he emerged wearing a tiny tartan beanie and demanding a bowl of haggis before his first diaper change. Growing up, he practiced footwork by dodging frozen cow pies and trained his kicking leg punting hay bales over barn roofs. Now, every time he steps on the field, the wind carries a faint sound of bagpipes—probably his uncle Angus hiding under the bleachers—but it still makes Patrick feel right at home.

I posted my concern that he'd get scooped when we didn't sign him to the roster at final cut down. That homer pride playing GM again. Anyway, glad they were able to retain him...he had a nice showing today. Certainly didn't lack on aggressiion.
