32 in football is like 72 in any other profession, and he wasn’t even top rated.

He wasn’t even a good quarterback, he was a 3rd string bench warmer. He did have that one “good” season a while ago, but that is like ages ago in football.

32 and been out of the loop for 3 years isn’t a resume enhancer, I said earlier, the NFL can do better from the draft picks and forget this dog and all of his fleas that goes with him.

Fans like fresh talent, not old warn out has beens that are never weres.

Also, suppose a team did sign him. What are they going to do when it comes time to cut him, because he didn’t make the grade? The public relations hit to the team will be brutal; accusations of racism and everything else to explain his not making the team.

The almost guaranteed downsides for the team far exceed the few and remotely possible upsides.

Heck, the NFL is going to take a PR hit just for holding the workout if nobody signs him. It’s really no upside to any of this for the league. You just kind of look at him and shake your head and wonder what in the hell are they thinking.
