Ramel Meekins

Here's the Rutgers press release about former Scarlet Knight Ramel Meekins, who latched on with the Toronto Argonauts of the CFL:

Mississauga , Ontario (September 13, 2007) – Former Rutgers standout Ramel Meekins (Westwood, N.J.) signed a practice squad contract with the Toronto Argonauts of the Canadian Football League. Meekins, who was one of the final cuts from the Indianapolis Colts training camp, will join former RU quarterback Mike McMahon ( Montreal ) in the CFL.

Meekins finished his college career with 142 tackles, 29 tackles for a loss, 17 sacks and four fumble recoveries. He was named team Defensive MVP as a senior in 2006 and was twice named BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Week. Meekins played three of four preseason games with the defending Super Bowl champion Colts this summer.

Today's paper has a feature on Mike Teel and his attitude toward improving as the season goes on. Tomorrow's paper has the weekly Game Day page previewing the Knights' game against Norfolk State.

And of course, tomorrow's blog will have live updates from Rutgers Stadium.

Enjoy tonight's Red Sox-Yankees showdown if you're able to watch it, and I'll talk to you tomorrow.
