He has been so busy with football the past five years that he can't remember the last time he spent so much time with them.

X has received so many calls and texts that he's starting to lose track of time and space. The club with multiple fifth-round picks that his agent thought was his most likely landing spot took another player at his position, so they are now unlikely to draft him.
But then X's phone rings. It's that club. When he sees the number on the screen, he thinks this could be The Call…..l
