TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) – Andre Roberts admits he was lost in training camp, overwhelmed by the transition from football at The Citadel to the complex, competitive world of the NFL.
With a military background to keep him disciplined, Roberts kept working – catching passes after practice day after day, running routes, working on his punt returns. Suddenly, it all seems to have clicked for the speedy, soft-spoken wide receiver.
In last week’s 27-26 victory over Dallas, Roberts had his best day yet: five catches for 110 yards, including a 74-yarder for a touchdown.
Roberts says that while he didn’t have the training camp or preseason that he wanted, “it’s getting better every day.”
