Koko78 Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 He has pissed away numerous chances. I can honestly say that, while I bear the kid no ill will, I really could not care less whether he succeeds or fails in the NFL. He has made his bed, and has repeatedly shown that he doesn't get it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 He won’t make it because the juice isn’t worth the squeeze. If you are ALWAYS going to be in trouble you better have Josh Gordon’s talent. No one is going to keep a 3rd QB around that is as likely to be in jail as he is to be on the field. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JESSEFEFFER Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 This is the United States of America, founded on people needing and seeking a new chance. He did well at Ol' Miss and their fans seem to wish him well and he did well in Denver to rehab knee and wrist surgeries and work he way to #2 on their depth chart. Then the Halloween thing happened and he crashed and burned again. He has "Fear None" tatooed on his arm and, while this may work for him on the field, he should really fear himself and the the poor judgement he has shown when challenged off it. I am rooting for him to make the most of his considerable talent and reward those that continue to believe in him. I think his arm talent and playing style make him interesting as a QB as do the local connection and well documented history of screwups, which as far as we know, have never caused harm to anyone other than himself. I hope he has sought some counseling because I think he will fail without it. Ultimately, as for the differing opinions soon to be expressed in this thread, you either believe in the possibilities of redemption or you don't. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoHuddleKelly12 Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 He can make plays. What a waste of potential to date. But it’s not a stretch to say it’s his arm more than his pedigree that gets him NFL camp invites. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJS Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 What does "make it" mean? He's a backup caliber QB, so if he works hard and stays out of trouble he could be a backup in the league for a long time. If not, he won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fridge Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 If I remember correctly, he was right in the middle of a QB controversy when he went off the deep end (for the 5th? time). He was in the perfect spot in Denver, but he ruined it. Now his best bet is to be QB3 and pray for two injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is almost how I feel. I think that he does (or did) have NFL talent but he may have already squandered it. In the thread about EJ, I made the point about how I still think that RJ was a mega talent who just could not produce at the NFL level and he really tried. With Kelly, my bet is that his opportunity came and went. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JESSEFEFFER Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 If he shows well and stays out of trouble he might still not make their roster but it would make an XFL gig more in play. Maybe with June Junes playing on the Houston team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sure looks like a Frank Reich gift to his friend but that wont extend into the real playing season. If you watched many SEC games, calling him a marginal talent is a bit harsh. His behavior has always been the issue with him. By many accounts, he was coddled and many people looked the other way during his many transgressions. They didn't do the kid any good. If he is able to stay sober and out of trouble, he may still carve out a career as a backup. I doubt that any owner will ever give him the keys to a franchise.

JESSEFEFFER Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I do not think he was ever on the PS as his first year was either PUP or IR. He was on the gameday roster for 7 games as the #2. So, I think he is still elligible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS rules make my head hurt. I believe he does: Each team can keep 10 players on its practice squad. Eight teams are allowed an 11th player as part of the league’s International Player Development Program. Up to four of those 10 players can have two accrued NFL seasons. So, was a player on the 53-man roster for at least six games of two NFL seasons? Sorry, they’re out of luck. It used to be that three weeks of an NFL season spent on a practice squad counted as one full season of practice squad eligibility. Now, that number has been increased to six weeks, which expands some players’ eligibility. A player can spend no more than three seasons on any practice squad. He spent 2017 on the "non football injury" list and most of 2018 on the practice squad, so only one accrued season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah might be right but his greatest play in college, the long TD vs Alabama should have been an interception. He played almost exclusively out of the shotgun, he is a bold player that, imo, takes way too many risks, dumb decisions, I dont think he is smart enough to play in the NFL.
