Sandro Platzgummer did not make it into the 53-man squad of the New York Giants for the basic round of the NFL starting next week. The Tyrolean running back was put on the so-called waiver list by the club on Tuesday, where he would be available for other football teams in the US league. After that, his future as a “free agent” would be completely open.
Bernhard Seikovits from Vienna has secured a place in the training squad of the Arizona Cardinals through the NFL's International Player Pathway Program (IPPP).
