K-9 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 CFL is tailor-made for his game. If he keeps it together, he can shine up there. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 I have nothing against the kid and glad he is able to get back on the field, cfl or otherwise. keep pushing forward kid 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiltonWaddams Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 The word was that the CFL would not let him sign a one-year contract. I wonder what the end-result contract looks like. Maybe he makes himself into a Flutie story and goes and gets a bunch of MVP's and Grey Cups, returning to the NFL as a savvy veteran creating a QB controversy.....with some other team. hope for his sake that he actually has his life together and can right the ship that was once sailing towards a rather lucrative, if not successful, NFL career. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lfod Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 The CFL was the only way. If he would of read my comments about him before he would of realized that. You have to earn that reputation back, those words mean nothing. It's about time and I don't understand why he was playing games before. I still predict he gives up on it just because he delayed this action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ti-Cats worked him out in Buffalo last August but he CFL would not let him in the league then. CFL said they would consider him in 2018 if he met "certain conditions. Guessing he met them.....or they're desperate and think he'll sell a lot of tickets for their struggling league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
