“He works his tail, he can run,” Schneider said of Fant, via Michael-Shawn Dugar of athletics. “It is a good tight end and it will have a very good productive year this year. We just had the impression – by taking up what I said about what is best for the organization – we were at a point where we just said to ourselves: “Ok, you know, can we – unfortunately, you must ourselves, we are completely covered?
