They still need to sign a few more more of these types before camp. They are at 66 under contract now, then between draft picks and UDFAs they will have to bring in these types of vet players to fill out the roster.

There is some luck involved, but can also attribute to good scouting and good coaching/player development

The working theory (not confirmed) by those in Steelers media is that he ran out of gas on the way to the airport and was trying to make his flight by running to the airport edit: I’m not convinced that he ran out of gas. I’ve seen other reports that there was no abandoned vehicle. I’m sure more will come out. Details sketchy and 2nd hand right now.

Fortunately, I have seen a lot of these stories over the past couple days

The actual wording was I believe that he was struggling to catch on with a team. This isn’t even accurate because he just signed a new deal with the Steelers. He isnt guaranteed a roster spot but it wasn’t as if he was let go after a year. they liked him and brought him back and by all accounts was developing and working hard and was competing to be QB2. He was doing really well personally and professionally and like Terry Mclaurin said “trying to become the best version of himself, just like all of us.” So sad.

The reactions that I saw were from people who knew him and were in pain. The poorly worded announcement of his death, which was how a majority of people found out, deserves criticism on its face but combined with the emotion of the situation it resulted in some outrage as well. And I don’t think anyone can decide what is worthy of any type of reaction during a time of extreme shock and grief. I was not personally outraged by the tweet. I do think it was a poor decision on Schefter’s part. A tragedy came out of nowhere. A young man lost his life. The announcement was jarring and included something negative and unrelated to the situation. I certainly understand why some who are strongly emotionally tied to this man would feel outrage. At best, it was bad form. And ESPN was right to have him delete it and re-post.

It could also be that elderly people sometimes have no filter, and will say exactly what they are thinking without considering the context of the situation or whether it is tone deaf, and also may not have the awareness of how quickly something can go viral now. i think it was an error in judgment to still have him doing media at this point.

Many in the comments said Josh is too high because no titles. It says best athlete though not best team

I’m honestly not sure. There is some back and forth in the comments about that.

Judge maybe too low?

Bills have 2 of the top 10, Sabres 0

Why? It’s not the time to strive for blame. People are mourning this young person’s death. He made some minor immature decisions once he got in the league but by all accounts was a very intelligent, likeable and gracious person. It’s difficult for some people to process the judgment taking place at this time.

Sounds like he may have been in the car?

He was in his car originally and got out. At first it was thought he ran out of gas, later it was reported he had a car issue and got out. Not sure we will ever know why, sadly.
