Yeah, my guess would be that he goes 952.

Yep, 952 looks right. Here's a photo of him arriving at Arrowhead.

Why did sign 53 Mr. Gales?

Wouldn't 1 have been more than enough?

got in the backfield a couple of times only to whiff on big stops by finishing the play and making the tackle. Logged alot of snaps and showed good hustle though. On the weight i think it was obvious he is closer to 295 than 259.
