Denzel Washington's Son Officially in NFL










John David Washington, son of Denzel Washington, signed a free agent contract with the St. Louis Rams a day after the draft came and went while Washingtons phone was silent.

Still, this is a far better ending than any of the players in his fathers movie Remember the Titans got.

Washington will have his work cut out for him. Likely he will be training camp fodder and the veterans and more "important" players will beat on him for a few months. If he survives that he could hope to catch on as a special teams player and from there, while it rarely happens, he could work his way onto the regular roster. The Rams love running backs, if Washington gets a chance you never know.
