"Even as the congratulatory emails and text messages were pouring in on Saturday, Glenn Carson still wasn’t sure he’d actually made the Arizona Cardinals.... 'That’s the kind of eerie thing about it. No one actually tells you you’ve made the team,' the former Southern Regional standout said Thursday.... For many of those who were sending the Manahawkin native those voicemails and text messages during the weekend, they’ll get to see Carson play in person nine days from now, with the Cardinals headed to MetLife Stadium to take on the Giants in Week 2."
