Isn’t that the dark-headed chick from Friends?
Nov 14, 2007 Free Agency, Injury bug, Secondary issues are primary, Who?
I suppose it is a sign of how many injuries you’ve had in your defensive secondary when you start signing guys the same week they were cut by other teams. In that vein, your Houston Texas signed Curome Cox yesterday, less than a week after Cox was released by the Broncos.
I have to be honest; Twenty-four hours ago, I had no idea who Curome Cox was. But, as is usually my wont, I decided to find out for you, the reader. That’s the kind of nice guy I am. So, I present “Ten Five Things You Probably Didn’t Know About Curome Cox.”
1. Cox was an honorable mention All-ACC selection his senior year at Maryland. He finished the season sixth in the conference with 10 passes defensed per game, and also made 40 tackles (32 solo).
2. A cornerback by trade, he primarily played safety in Denver.
3. He was not invited to the 2004 NFL Combine, but was decent enough in college that Scouts, Inc., considered his a “notable omission” and 2004 Previews listed him as a “key loss” for the Terps.
4. He ran a 4.52 and did 19 reps at Maryland’s pro day workouts.
5. Holds two Chick-Fil-A Bowl records (though both were set on the same play).
