McCarron won the grievance btw so he's a UFA now.

Awesome news. The reports this morning stated the arbitrator was out for personal reasons and the decision would be delayed.

According to several recent reports confirming A. J. McCarron's status change from restricted free agent to unrestricted free agent, he will hit the market with the rest of the UFAs March 14th.

McCarron is quoted by ESPN:

"I'm not the one -- the people that know me and truly know me, and my family knows -- it's not about the money for me. I just love playing football. Making the money is great but I just want to play. ... Whoever gives me an opportunity. I'm not going to chase the huge contract and be put in a situation that I might not be one hundred percent comfortable with just because it's a lot more money or whatever. I want to go somewhere where I can win and help the team win and we have a bright future together. I'm just super excited for this next chapter," he told the Enquirer.

I really hope that Tom Coughlin and David Caldwell can bring McCarron in and get him signed to a contract both sides feel comfortable with.

I wonder if Bortles defenders can name one single NFL team out there that wants him? Tell that team to make the Jaguars an offer.
