Remember Quinn Gray?

You mean the guy that we invested time to develop, grew into a backup role and won 2 games for us in a playoff season?

That Quinn Gray? Guess what - that's precisely what one should expect from a guy like Rourke. He ain't gonna be the starter. Heck he ain't likely ready to be the backup. Give him a year or two, no telling what you got.

Nobody is saying Rourke would be the next Mark Brunell. It just seems silly that if they weren't invested in the long-term prospect of keeping him as a third QB, why not just sign a throwaway player to a single-year deal, and basically have the foregone conclusion that you're a camp arm and this is your chance to put film out there.

Dude's not gonna clear waivers, he certainly made the best of his time here.
