I didn’t get my response in fast enough…lol. Someone said that Jerry said he’s made the 53….little doubt about that.
That’s because he is under contract for only 5 million. He will be the emergency guy and scout team QB, where he does have value when we prepare for a mobile QB. The idea, however, that Jerry will pony up a second QB contract when Lance is A Free agent after this season, is dream stuff. If they thought he had any chance of being our starter or even competing as a starter after having him on the team last year, they would have paid for his 5th year option to have him an extra year, but without a long term commitment. They didn’t. He will be a free agent at the end of this season.
Even if Dak gets his new contract, and I believe he will, it’s time to draft a young QB with plenty of college starting experience in the middle rounds next spring. Develop that guy on the cheap.
