I think if he clears waivers he will be on the Colts practice squad tomorrow. That's a big if. Maybe they waited two days in hopes that teams will not want to claim at this point of the week. The Colts have a strong organization and that's probably the best place for Chad, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asking seriously because the only time I’ve seen his was pre-season Colts where he was head and shoulders their best QB and with Denver where he likely would have started eventually.

Punching Bag Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Likely Luck retiring messed up their plans. They needed to find a veteran backup QB (Hoyer) and right now they cannot use slot on #3 QB. If Chad is lucky he will be put on PS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether there is any other opportunity or not, I think he'd be better off on the PS coached by Frank Reich and staff than on an active roster which is currently going through some kind of major QB upheaval ala the Jets headed by Adam Gase.

I did not know that. I thought if someone made a waiver claim they pretty much have to go. That his NFL rights go to the claimer. I guess it would be rare to choose the PS of one team over the active roster of another but the Colts did more for Chad than give him a chance to be a camp arm. He might be wise to stay there.

HalftimeAdjustment Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 So now we know the Colts don't want to keep him as QB3. Best chance, he clears waivers and ends up on the Colts PS tomorrow. According to reports, they are expected to sign him. https://cbs4indy.com/2019/09/18/colts-waive-quarterback-chad-kelly/ However, there's an off chance some other team takes him. https://www.redcuprebellion.com/2019/9/18/20871760/ole-miss-football-chad-kelly-colts-saints-jets-broncos-steelers-jaguars-brees-bridgewater-darnold Third option, he could clear waivers and sign to another team's PS. I don't think that's very likely either. And of course, there's a chance he could end up totally unemployed. Despite the posts in this thread, I think that is probably the least likely outcome.

When they put him on PS they said he would be paid full salary so he had no desire to be put on other team, waived and put on PS. Cannot remember his name.

I don't think they can waiver claim him to the PS; they can waiver claim him to their roster. Once he is actually on the Colts PS, after that he can probably choose not to be signed off to another team's roster. Regardless of "team situation" I cannot see a player choosing a PS spot over a roster spot, if only for financial reasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphadawg7 Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 (edited) All this means is they aren’t prepared to either carry 3 QBs on active roster or promote him to #2. This is a PS move if you ask me, and makes sense for the Colts to make this move right now. His career isn’t done, he’s coming off suspension and behind the other QBs in terms of being ready to play. Not saying he is gonna be a future starter, but this is the move I would expect the colts to make right now. Question is will he clear waivers with all the QB injuries right now.

Good points. I watched him in one of the Colts pre-season games and he looked fairly decent. Poised, lively arm, athletic enough to run one in from like 10 yds. IF (big if) he's found religion (figuratively speaking) and has gotten past being stupid (a daily battle for most of us), he could be worth trying to develop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's clear that he has the arm and the pure talent. He probably did just as many dumb things as Uncle Jim. But Jimbo learned and changed before it was too late.

MassHog Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 It is definitely possible that they planned to put him on the practice squad and kept him on the roster for the first two weeks so his suspension would go away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of "team situation" I cannot see a player choosing a PS spot over a roster spot, if only for financial reasons. A player who is claimed on waivers has to report to the team that claims him. If he clears waivers he can sign with any team's practice squad. Every practice squad player is technically a free agent, free to sign with any team that wants to put him on their 53. Since he's already cleared waivers, he is not subject to a waiver claim again until he is on someone's 53 man roster. If a player is approached by another team & offered a contract he has the option of staying on his team's practice squad rather than signing with the interested team. This can happen in the case the player feels he has a future with his current team & feels the other team only wants him for a short period of time. A good example would be if the Jets wanted a QB for this week to be the backup & instead of signing Fales as they did, they wanted some practice squad QB. That QB might realize the Jets want him for 1 or 2 games until Darnold comes back & then he's gone. In that case it makes more sense to stay on his team's practice squad rather than join the Jets & PO the team he feels he has a future with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
