CrazyCarl40 52,037 #1 Posted June 17 Not that he was coming back to the Jets if he didn’t, but he was a Jets player and therefore, we post. Long career. Made like 10 million for nothing! Can’t beat it. 13 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rex-n-effect 423 #6 Posted June 17 Seems to have been a good teammate and cared about the work he did even if he will never be remembered as one of the game's greats. He is fortunate to have played as long as he did without any serious injury and will probably have a long career as a coach or analyst for as long as he wants to work. 8 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

New York Mick 91,929 #8 Posted June 17 He played to the best of his ability and was a standup guy nothing really bad to say about him. He’ll end up on someone’s coaching staff in the future or sports talk. 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The money he was paid was either going into the pocket of the Johnson's or to help Darnold. Money well spent if you ask me. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mac overpaid him on the pivot from Cousins but, what was he supposed to do? Turn it down? By all accounts a great teammate. 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

While it's safe to say that it would take an absolute scrub to recognize one, athletes don't simply make $50 million by accident. 9 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bruce Harper 2,704 #17 Posted June 17 I'm not sure it's necessary to take all these shots at him on his way out. He played some of his best ball for the Jets and was an excellent mentor to Darnold, or at least gave his utmost to help him along. I wouldn't mind being the type of "scrub" who could make a very good living in the league for seventeen years. 12 1 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He played to his ability, took the $$ he could earn and was a true professional. Wasn't a punk, never dogged it, never quit on his teammates, never any on or off the field trouble. 8 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joewilly12 16,010 #30 Posted June 17 ✔Rich Cimini I've been covering the #Jets for a long, long time, and I'd put Josh McCown on my all-class team. A good guy who always understood the role of the media, who always made time for reporters, who handled the Sam Darnold situation with total professionalism. #Jets 122 2:43 PM - Jun 17, 2019 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then again, not sure if Patton Oswalt would feel a little too insecure about such a hire for it to happen. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
