33 years of age. He should still be playing if he was any good. Reminds me of Heath Schuler, QB. Should have been in the prime of his career with the position he plays. A failure.

What do you know about him leaving the NFL?

Heath Schuler, QB.

The realities of professional sports is a very large step from collegiate level play. Draftees washing out one and four years into the game is not uncommon. That washout rate is probably the norm. Draftees riding the pine for a season and then scrubbed is also common.

There are 129 NCAA football teams and only 32 NFL teams. By definition, the lesser lights in the NCAA teams will wash out. The problem with Gonzalez isn’t that he wasn’t very good in the NFL. 99.9999% of the population aren’t good enough to play for an NCAA team, so where football is concerned, Gonzalez is somewhere in the stratosphere. The issue with Gonzalez as a GOP pol is that he’s not very conservative - he’s Marco Rubio with better academic credentials. Latin America is full of these kinds of corrupt pols. We don’t need one representing any GOP district in Ohio. Let him run as a Democrat.
