Theres not much more of a grind than the career of a specialist! But @jayfeely is a great example of perseverance and hard work! #ChaseYourDream.
Since everyone is doing it. On this day in 1999 (and the next two days as well) I didnāt get drafted .Spent the next two years working out and trying to get into camp. Finally came into training camp as the camp leg, won the job and kicked in the NFL for 14 yrs.#chaseyourdream.

A big shoutout to my guy @matt_trickett2 !!! Great decision by @AtlantaFalcons.
After working out at mandatory minicamp, the #Falcons are signing former Minnesota kicker @matt_trickett2 to a 3-year contract, source said. He can take some kicks off Bradley Pinion and Younghoe Koo in the preseason and ATL can work to develop him.
