drive_start_yard_line str formatting

[nickwan]

the column drive_start_yard_line has some inconsistencies between yrdln:

['50', '', 'WAS20', 'NYJ20', 'ATL20'] where the format from yrdln is three-letter-abbr and the yard line with a space in between.

the column drive_start_yard_line also has a few inconsistencies, albeit much smaller: ['50', '']

obviously there's an easy bandage to fix this, but unsure if the str formatting in the processing pipeline is truncating strings for some reason

The drive variables are mostly us passing along info provided by nfl in the data, so I'm guessing that's the actual values, but can check later. We haven't paid a lot of attention to the drive stuff because it's extremely buggy on nfl's end
