Big Turk Posted December 25, 2019 Posted December 25, 2019 (edited) I don't get how a guy who has averaged 4.5 YPC for his career and never under 4.0 YPC in any season over his career is not on a team right now but retreads like Robert Turbin just got signed by the Seahawks. Now I know he used to play for them.but the man has averaged under 4 YPC in 5 of the last 7 seasons he has played including his last 3. Anderson also came up huge late in the season and in the playoffs for the Rams last year with some big games when Gurley was dealing with his knee issues. So I have to wonder how is this dude not on a team? Honestly the Bills could probably use him right about now. Edited December 25, 2019 by matter2003 1

Phil The Thrill Posted December 25, 2019 Posted December 25, 2019 CJ is older. There has to be a reason why no other teams have signed him. Might not be much gas left in the tank

Expand ....uh oh....the "conspiracy theory".............. "In a series of tweets, Anderson suggested he was the best fit for the job, but that he was passed up and it may be part of some bigger conspiracy"...... After not signed by Seahawks, CJ Anderson sounds like a man who feels slighted Peter Socotch NBC Sports NorthwestDec 24, 2019, 11:53 AM Free agent running back C.J. Anderson had a tryout with the Seahawks on Monday, but they didn't sign him. Afterward, he suggested he was done playing football. In a series of tweets, Anderson suggested he was the best fit for the job, but that he was passed up and it may be part of some bigger conspiracy. The Seahawks signed two running backs Monday, neither were Anderson. And he subtweets both Marshawn Lynch and Robert Turbin, whom the Seahawks signed instead. https://sports.yahoo.com/not-signed-seahawks-cj-anderson-165336077.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAIJWJ1r55ZIEtjcYcTHu-G1_DqxbSO44Kj_Sh_nTdqf0KXdtjowex8ydr2ThVBea59LgfLnoSlhHdegqpb6jCVrG4bq5cAv8QzoyLP9OWl7wKDZgrDHXTEx6EvohLEMDQRgll79HVT7Fls5ErspRsYHBm2RWZVYT2mBjffbTDJpo
