JohnnyLV Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 13 minutes ago, phill1c said: ...that you can understand. I mean the guy didn't just walk into the job from the street. He had experience building up to it and probably didn't just do it the way he did it for no reason. I'm a little wary of saying it's "dumbest contract ever..." when, in reality, it's just a contract that didn't reach its maximum utilization. It happens frequently. It's not really hurting the Jets now...and, among the issues with GMing and player contracts, it's really negligible as to its harmful effects. Among dumber Jets contracts: Neil O'Donnell, Tim Tebow, Justin McCareins, Ryan Kalil, Brian Winters. No, it's the dumbest contract ever. The guy was coming back from a broken neck had never shown an ability to stay healthy and we gave a contract with an injury guarantee. If the contract had not been guaranteed for injury, fine, but as it was it just defied all logic. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimjasi Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 I can't imagine him being back and am already living my life under the assumption that he won't be on the team next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerfish Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 He's a goner if it makes $ sense. Got in the bad books last year by not following team rules and then openly whining about it after being penalized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
extmenace Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Lol. His salary is guaranteed on 3/22. He has an injury clause. He isn’t going anywhere unless he’s traded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, obviously, your criteria for "dumbness" is that you want to call it that...and nothing else really. It's not like he's paying Enunwa Franchise WR money. Good lord, man. It didn't work out and it's costing the Jets, so far...how much?

If the coach and or gm does not like him or want him around they will eat whatever penalties they face, that deal was made by mac. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icer Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 This is an impossible contract thanks to Big Mac. Just have to ride it out til its over, Bobby Bonilla style 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redlichtie Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 At this point everyone is writing Enunwa off....would actually be a huge boost were he to return and be a contributor in any way at all... maybe wishful thinking but perhaps QE is not done and there’s a big comeback season on the cards 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FidelioJet Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 You can not possibly go into the season with him on the roster - he’s fine for camp but keeping him on the roster is simply one less spot for someone that has a chance of staying healthy. Q won’t make it past week 3 if he’s on the team. Having him take reps away from someone else is just bad management. He’ll be cut as soon as it makes fiscal sense.

Melly-Mel Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Gotta see if hes able to play and at what level. Q is a tough dude, and if he can play at a high level and move on from the bad blood he felt id like to keep him, but we will see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flgreen Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 He'll be in camp. Always liked his style of play. That's probably why he'll most likely have an abbreviated career. It's A very long shot, but I'll be praying he can pull a recovery. Would help him and the Jets 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
varjet Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Enunwa is basically the highest paid person in America going to PT with no end game. He is not playing football again, but until he finds a doctor who will say that he cannot play football ever again, he needs to rehab, every day, and work like he is trying to come back. My guess is that, if he stops working, he stops getting paid. And no Veterans Day lunches with his veteran wife. I feel bad for the guy, but I don't see him coming back. Maybe the new CBA allows him to be cut sooner, although this is what injury settlements are supposed to be for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUM-KNEE Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 I wish Q the best, always liked him. We need healthy bodies at WR though, so I can't hold on any more. Gotta let go like a curling stone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philc1 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 I’m aMac hater and I was one before it became cool but the Q contract at least made some sense. He was a good WR here and showed chemistry with Sam. Unfortunately his body just fell apart what were the alternatives? Donte Moncreif? Yuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangerous Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 enunwa's contract is bad. they may have thought they were doing the team a favor with the injury clause but now it's backfiring. the best they can hope is that he passes his physical. i'm not sure if they can negotiate an injury settlement if he doesn't. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
