Great mini-camp with Green Bay Packers
Philadelphia, PA -After a long 8-month layoff from
the Detroit Lions, being misrepresented by a former agent, Darrell Blackman
finally got the shot that he needed by joining the Green Bay Packers Rookie
Orientation Weekend on May 1 - 3 at Green Bay Packers Lambeau Field.
Darrell has been a running back most of all of his
life from Pop Warner to high school and eventually getting a full athletic
scholarship to NC State Wolfpack. But in an unselfish move, the coach
wanted to use Darrell explosiveness as a runner and strength as a blocker at
wide receiver. After doing so, he shined and received all-acc honors as a
running back and a wide receiver. After finishing school, Darrell slipped
from the draft into free agency, but signed a free agent contract with the
Detroit Lions in 2008, but was later released. Although several NFL scouts
wanted to see him at running back, his former agent did not promote him as such.
Since October, Darrell has been working with Maine Prince and
Philadelphia Sports Training Center and has signed with a new NFL sports agent,
Christopher Cabott, Esq. from Zane
Management. Thanks to Chris' due diligence and connecting to all NFL
teams that needed a running back and a special teams kick returned with
Darrell's explosiveness. Through his training at PSTC and his steadfast
determination, Darrell got a second chance at his childhood dream of playing in
the National Football League.
Congratulations to Darrell, his family, Chris Cabott, and his
exceptional sports performance trainer, Maine Prince...keep up the Great Work!
Congratulations to PSTC client, Darrell
Blackman
Darrell was called on Sunday, a year after he received his first pro team call.
He was invited by the Green Bay Packers to sign a free agent contract and he
will be joining the team this weekend, Thursday - Sunday for their post draft
mini-camp for new players and rookies. Congratulations again to Darrell
who came a long way around and back again to the NFL after being signed by the
Detroit Lions and released because he was out of position at WR. Now he's
at his given position of running back and will shine better than ever. To
watch the video story click the link below, which was developed by his super NFL
agent, Christopher Cabott, Esq. at Zane Management
in Center City Philly.
Don't forget to leave us your feedback and let us know what you think of the
video and your words of encouragement to Darrell getting back into the NFL for
the chance of a lifetime. Thanks for your support and we look forward to
working with you all in The Sports Training
Academy this summer.
Now that you've
worked your way to the top at your position or you're trying in to get to the "League", the
number one cause of early contract termination is lack of consistency in
progressing and maintaining top physical shape. Speed is a determining
factor of your daily workout routine, from sports nutrition through weight
management. A PSTC professional personal "sports" trainer is your
wisest investment to continue your career as a professional athlete.
