Of course Shanahan was just joking because Rocca is a married man with two young sons.

You can't blame Shanahan for pulling out all the stops though. Given the current state of the teams offense, a punter could be the team's most valuable player.

There are currently three other Australian punters in the NFL. Ben Graham, Cardinals, Mat McBriar, Cowboys and Chris Bryan, NY Jets. Wonder if their visa status/s are less complicated.....do they (if married) have Australian or American wives?

Don't know about their wife situations. But as long as they keep their jobs they have no visa complications, wife or not. The problem with Rocca is that he became unemployed when he was cut, a condition which voids his work visa.
