Even EJ Manuel got signed!
He should try for a job with a team outside of the USA. I’m sure he would find that more comforting than the discriminatory USA. s/c

The article basically says the same thing, estimating around sixty to seventy percent of the teams’ personnel heads just plain hating the guy. The other thirty to forty percent aren’t interested because they think he’s a s**tty quarterback or are aware of how signing him would go down with their fan base. He’s toxic.
Otherwise, he will have to wait until a mid-season injury sidelines an NFL starter before somebody will take a gamble on him.
Perhaps that’s because the public doesn’t want to see him.
Agreed. I will begin watching NFL again when they bring Tebow back, maybe coach, and Kaepernick is dust.
Otherwise, there are many other sports games. Many.
The author forgets that 2/3's of the teams in the league are satisfied with their current starting QB. Some others are looking to rebuild (Kap is already 29), and draft their QB to get the advantage of the rookie wage scale. There are so many more variables the author failed to consider, or failed to put into the article.
Exactly. Ultimately, sports is just another form of entertainment. The main object of the sport is to sell tickets and earn TV ratings. Winning is the tried and true way to popularity; trying hard and giving great effort is acceptable. Insulting your fans is a great way to lose their interest - even if you're winning.
It's arrogant to think that everyone has the same political views- it's even more arrogant to try to tell people why they are wrong (especially when they're not).
The league may not acknowledge the negative impact he's had. But the team owners know, and they're the ones that have to face the immediate backlash.
Enjoy the golf course, Colin.
I think he’s gone over the the dark side, thanks to his girlfriend. His mind is no longer totally on the game, sort of like Tiger Woods but for a different reason.
He’s done.
And it serves him right to suffer but that said some team will eventually call. That is just the way the NFL is.
The NFL could hire Somali players, and salute the Black Flag of ISIS. Diversity is their strength.
Agree. Feel good story. Let’s see if some masochist/politically correct NFL owner steps up and succeeds in deep sixing another NFL season. Maybe Roger Badhell can employ him in the front office as his politically correct stooge.
I don’t care how good he is, there’s someone as good or better. And they will have some respect for their fans and their country.
This idiot committed career suicide.
Does that mean he’s becoming a Ram?
Not accurate at long throws or short touch throws. It's always a 90MPH fastball weather 5 yds. or 50.
And as a 49er Faithful fan since the mid 60's, he is a #Fake49er.
Tebow is playing for the Mets...
Doubt he would start coaching football...
He was never a good Quarterback. He was a gimmick and the NFL caught up with him.
I’d like Dallas to hire him.
As a tackling dummy.
I love a story with a Schadenhappy ending...
