Well, there’s been so much hype about this pea-brained, mediocre, racialist has-been, that his joining the AAF probably would attract a fair amount of publicity and eyeballs to the new league... at least for the first few of his games. He’d be one of the league’s few “name” players, much like Steve Young, Jim Kelly, Doug Flutie & Herschel Walker were in the USFL. It’s not necessarily unreasonable for him to expect to be paid more than the other AAF players. But $20 mil?! Uh, no, Colin. Dream on. I don’t think he’s serious about wanting to actually play.
Yes, but his "name" is based on whining off the field, not winning on the field. The AAF was started exactly because of his nonsense. Why would they invite it in, for a QB who has won all of 3 games SINCE 2014?!? When he is now rusty, over 30, and never shown any ability to win without Jim Harbaugh behind him? He had lower QB ratings and higher sack percentages than his own backup QB (Blaine Gabbert) behind the same O-line.
Even his Wikipedia entry lists him as an activist first, and a football player second.
He went 25-14 in his 3 seasons with Harbaugh, and then 3-16 after Harbaugh left. Who was the one with talent, after all?
Younger QBs with more wins since 2014.... Marcus Mariota - 27... Dak Prescott - 32 (was in college in 2015)... His old backup QB, Blaine Gabbert, has only started 21 games since 2014, and HE has 8 wins in that time frame.
