#HoosInTheNFL

Former Cavalier @mrinman15 signed a one-year contract this week with the @Chargers and will return as one of Philip Rivers’ most reliable targets after starting all 16 games in 2016 at wide receiver. Inman has been a great NFL success story after his four-year career in Charlottesville (2007-10). Signed as a free agent in 2011 by the Jacksonville Jaguars and dropped prior to the season, Inman spent two years in the CFL before the Chargers signed him in January of 2014. Of Inman’s three seasons with the Chargers, 2016 was his breakout year as he set career highs across the board with 58 receptions, 810 receiving yards and four touchdowns.

Hoos vs. Pros

#UVAMTEN freshman Carl Söderlund got in some extra special practice this week before heading to Rome, Ga., for the ACC Men’s Tennis Championship. Söderlund was the hitting partner for world No. 16 player Nick Kyrgios, who was practicing at the Boar’s Head while in town to watch the Boyd Tinsley Classic, a women’s professional event being held this week in Charlottesville. The Aussie also sent Twitter into a frenzy when this Hoo-tastic selfie.
