Meh. Said similar things about Bortles too.

Yeah he did, but I don't think the tone was the same.

Given the team's cap situation, and the unlikely possibility of a trade, I don't see the team simply cutting him.

I mean, he's shown himself to be an overly emotional person.  Taunts, trash talk... became hyper-dramatic during his speech during Poz retirement.  But must we assume what's really going on in his head until we actually hear from him?  Silence certainly isn't good, but we just don't know what's eating him to judge whether whatever the issue is to know if it could be reconciled.

Despite that, I thought he was mature enough to be able to communicate with the team about whatever may be bothering him.  Maybe not.

Regardless, this team won't suffer without him, or achieve any more with him.

I can't say I personally have a desire regarding which way this goes.

Carlyon suggested a 5th in 2020.  I mean, at this point - wouldn't breaking even be a fair deal?  You can't have anything back (what's been spent has been spent) and the future isn't guaranteed.

But again... I'm not sure he's much of a factor either way moving forward, whether here or gone.

Given his contract and out cap situation, we'd be lucky to get a 5th.  If we are intent on getting rid of him, and I cringe at the thought, we may have to do what Houston did to get rid of Osweiler.

Hopefully it never comes to that at all.
