News: LBS: Jaylon Smith addresses reason Cowboys cut him

[CATCH17]

Jaylon, if you were elite your contract would’ve been relatively cheap.

Instead, you probably don’t belong in the NFL and if you didn’t have a known name you wouldn’t be in the NFL.

 

[nobody]

He called himself elite. That's funny. The people defending that statement with "What should he have said?" should consider this. How many players that are considered "elite" by almost everyone claim they are elite? Few if any claim it. They show it on the field.

Jaylon was okay. He wasn't as awful as some claim, and he wasn't as good as some claim. He was definitely on the downward slide of performance. Still he was okay. We just had better available and so they made the business decision to dump him just in case.

But to call yourself elite even if your record doesn't show that to be the case? That's funny.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Surprised he even bother answering the question.......silence can be your friend

That is because they are rarely asked, but if you ask any of them they would also call themselves elite and so would the very good and the average.

Ready to turn the page.

You won't hear one person that actually had interactions with jaylon day a single negative word about him. You guys just suck.

Sorry Jaylon. Good luck in Green Bay dude.

 

[phildadon86]

This guy has 0 self awareness. A simple “the nfl is a business and my focus is to get better and work hard to prove them wrong” or something of that nature. Instead. He said he’s “elite” yet again showing he completely lacking self awareness and a brain.

 

[glimmerman]

I am ok with him considering himself elite. He has confidence. But saying he always wanted to play for the packers is rude. Thought he always wanted to play for The Cowboys. Maybe that was his mom or dad.

 

[5Stars]

I am so glad this clown is gone. Swipe and wipe all the way to Green Bay, and stay.

 

[Risen Star]

For context ..

This guy had a better grip on reality.

 

[NeonNinja]

Delusional

 

[Risen Star]

I wonder if there's a Rockport equivalent Packers fan who thinks he's getting an elite LB and he's schooling all the haters right now.

 

[blueblood70]

ELITE LOL

so he sandbagged his way out of here LOL

 

[CWR]

For context ..

Lol someone said he's the real life Kenny Powers. Completely unaware of any issues he may have on the football field. Jaylon probably thinks he just made GB superbowl favorites.

I love believing in one's self, but there is a line between self confidence and arrogance.

 

[Vinnie2u]

Jaylon is elite… at cherry picking tackles, arm Flailing, pointing and butt slapping.

 

[Big_D]

Jaylon is elite… at cherry picking tackles, arm Flailing, pointing and butt slapping.

Also celebrating, avoiding blocks and jumping on piles.

 

[nathanlt]

ELITE LOL

so he sandbagged his way out of here LOL

Maybe he meant that he was playing NEXT TO an elite player...

Seriously though, I feel for him. I would love to have played for the Cowboys, I would have hung on and tried to make the most of it as long as I could get on the field.

 

[Verdict]

You won't hear one person that actually had interactions with jaylon day a single negative word about him. You guys just suck.

Jaylon’s constant patting himself on the back and celebrations when the team is losing hasn’t endeared him with Cowboys fans.

 

[Verdict]

Also celebrating, avoiding blocks and jumping on piles.

Ah yes! Jumping on piles! Let’s not forget that one.

 

[Verdict]

This is why you cut him
This guy has no idea about how bad he sucks

That’s true.
