SC Featured has story of former Green Beret Nate Boyer trying to make the Seahawks

ESPN's SC Featured will tell the story of Seattle Seahawks long snapper and former Green Beret Nate Boyer in a segment airing on the Sunday, Aug. 9, editions of ESPN SportsCenter.

From a press release:

A new NFL season is underway and hundreds of athletes are reporting to training camps - all chasing a dream of playing professional football. In Seattle, 34-year-old rookie Boyer is perhaps the longest of shots, having never played a snap of football until he walked on at Texas as a 29-year-old freshman five years ago. But Boyer, a native of Oak Ridge, Tenn., has spent his life making the impossible possible and has never faced a challenge he couldn't conquer. Marty Smith reports for SC Featured.

The feature will debut in the 10 a.m. ET edition of SportsCenter and will re-air in other editions of the program throughout the day.

Quotes from the feature:

"I shouldn't even be here and I am. That's only because of how hard I've worked and because of the people who've helped me out along the way. I owe it to them to spill my blood out and give it everything I got." - Nate Boyer

"This is the kind of guy whatever he puts his mind to you think he's going to get it done. It's a great story regardless of what happens because he's a great person." - Pete Carroll, Seattle Seahawks head coach
