Football season is upon us and we learned of a couple of servicemembers that are getting their chance at playing professional football. Check out this story of 2 Marine Corps officers who both made the final rosters of their respective NFL teams - and they're excited. It will be fun to follow them this season to see how they - and their teams - fare.
