So over a year of giving my point of view on how I see the game, offense, mixed in with the fact that I was doing a lot in the gaming / media space while being a player — it was clear that it wasn’t liked so much. So regardless of how well I felt I was playing - it didn’t really matter. At the end of the day I was a dispensable practice squad player. My perspective in conversation, added in with my projects off the field weren’t a fit for the head coach (even though it was appreciated by others).

Truly one of the more embarrassing self-owns you'll read.

Not really? He's not being unreasonable about any of it.
Why are we carrying water for MLF and the organization now? You're offering your opinion on a message board, but Kurt Benkert, who was in the locker room, in practices, has experience within the organization, AND has a working knowledge of the game higher than that of anyone here, has invalid opinions?

I absolutely will not be doing that.

Friendly reminder that you are offering your opinion here on a message board where you also frequently talk about video games. I think the irony there is funny.
To read this as an excuse as to why he's not in the NFL is a bit baffling given he was in and out of practice squads for 5 seasons instead of, this is why MLF and I didn't really get along. Ok, it happens so what? What an idiot for realizing that the NFL wasn't a long term full time option and diversifying his income streams.

You're doing the exact same thing he is without the audience.

Again, my opinions don't mean anything and I'm not pretending they do.

The release of Taylor is a little bit of a surprise since he was just called up to the 53 roster (3rd time) from the PS.

They must still like him more than Taylor. I think this move is more about them feeling like Jones will be fine after the bye and also Taylor is like the definition of just a guy so they can easily find another if needed later on.MVP2110 wrote:Treebeard wrote:Packers re-sign LB Justin Hollins and release RB Patrick Taylor

At this point I'd probably cut bait on Wilson and see if you can sneak him onto the PS. RB is a position where you can usually tell pretty quickly if they have it and if Wilson is unplayable at 24 years old he's probably not going to suddenly become playable next year
