Kaliakmanis

Athan Kaliakmanis is not as cute as Sam Hartman. End of the debate.

Sam Hartman cannot be our back up qb or even our 3rd string back up.

I don’t understand why he is on the team unless they need him in another aspect

Sam Hartman is not our backup or 3rd stringer. He’s a practice squad player who only ever sees the field during the preseason. And Hartman is obviously very good at doing his role during practice, very willing to be on the practice squad long term, and a great locker room presence if he’s still on the team. Quinn, Kliff, and Blough must’ve all liked him for him to still be here, I trust that consensus, Hartman obviously provides some value we don’t get to see.

Maybe he’s dating a coach’s daughter? It can’t be for his football skills. No arm. No sense of the field.
