There's no substitute for hard work.
A friend of Fan Fanatic Sports, Ryan Durand, is a perfect example of that.
The second-year Tennessee Titans guard, who spent all of his rookie season on the Titans' practice squad, officially made the 53-man roster in his second season.
Obviously, Fan Fanatic Sports would like to congratulate Durand on working hard and getting rewarded with a roster spot.
Durand, who played his high school football at St. Bernard's Central Catholic High School (in Fitchburg, Mass.) and Syracuse University, is listed as the backup behind starter Jake Scott at right guard and the third-stringer at left guard.
The 6-foot-5, 301-pound Durand is an athletic offensive lineman and is known for his tremendous smarts on the gridiron.
Take a look at Durand's bio on the Titans' web site.
Here is the Titans' roster for 2010.
Again, congrats Ryan on a job well done.
Best of luck this season.
