Season 10 of HBO’s “Hard Knocks” is reaching its conclusion with just one episode remaining. This week, the show continued to provide us with rich off the field content, but there was one main thing on everyone’s minds – cuts. The Texans (and the rest of the NFL) had to reduce their roster to 75 players by Tuesday, and the end of the episode showed how hard that is for coaches, management, and players.
Travis Labhart was one of the players that was told to pack his bags at the end of the episode. Although we hadn’t seen much of Labhart in the previous three episodes, he was one of the players in the spotlight last night. His fishing and swimming day trip with his wife and Uzoma “EZ” Nwachukwu was one of the more memorable moments from the episode.
Here are three more takeaways from last night’s episode of “Hard Knocks”. If you missed last week’s takeaways, be sure to check them out here.
