For most, the goal of reaching the NFL are slim. Once you reach the professional level of any sport, you have the obstacle or remaining with your team or keeping certain endorsements.
NFL players hate this time of the year because they have to most likely deal with the terms of their contract terms.
When speaking on terms of being an NFL player, the off-season can be a scary time period, unless your contract is secured and settled.
During the NFL off-season, many players have surgeries, have to find other means of work to survive a certain lifestyle, and some find themselves in limbo after their contracts are up. They must hope their agents and their seasonal play will either help them keep their jobs or assist them in making more money.
This season has been a whirlwind for a large majority of players dealing with contracts.
He requested a trade after slowly finding himself in the passenger seat to that of the young and talented DeAndre Hopkins.
Another eye opener is the LeSean McCoy trade. After spending his entire career, college included in the state of Pennsylvania, the former Philadelphia Eagles RB, that holds the single reason rushing record in 2013 of 1,607, is headed to the Buffalo Bills.
For the Chicago Bears, their standout WR Brandon Marshall is headed to the NY Jets..
It seems like this year a lot of teams feel they need to rebuild and sign younger players to replace living legends.
So for NFL, this time period between the last game of the season and when OTA's being (organized team activities) start can be extremely stressful to manage.
But for veterans who have been in the NFL for a while, know how difficult the process is and try to to gradually teach younger NFL players the ropes.
