wow

 

[Fritsch_the_cat]

I wonder what's up with that?

 

[Wheeltax]

Huh? Does this mean Brent is retiring or...?

 

[JohnsKey19]

Geesh. I thought he would be a key piece to the DT rotation. So we're even weaker at DT(1T) than we all thought.

 

[remdak]

My guess is that either:
1) Brent decided he did not have the desire to play any longer
2) Brent has had another issue with alcohol or some controlled substance

Gonna guess the latter. The wording of Tim Macmahon's tweet made me think he did something.

 

[Jstopper]

Damn that's blows. I figured Brent would possibly be the 1-tech starter. Got to see whats the reason for this

 

[erod]

The dude is an alcoholic. My gut is, he can't get it under control.

Besides, I don't think he was going to make the team with the way things are shaking out.

McClain, Crawford, Whaley, Hayden, and Bishop. Number crunch.

 

[Thatkidbob]

Well damn.

Yeah, with all he's been through I doubt he'd just hang up the cleats.

 

[jblaze2004]

dang i was hoping he was starting next to Craw, not another year of hayden as the starter and getting alot of snaps.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Obviously there is more to this story. The timing is a little strange with the draft recently completed.

 

[jblaze2004]

next question is does this save us some $$$?

Yeah, ALL OF THAT DEPTH was gonna keep Brent from making the team.

 

[Gameover]

we needed to rid ourselves of atleast one "troubled" guy. Hope this is the end of his association with the Cowboys.

 

[guag]

I'm almost 100% sure it's a relapse. I can't imagine Brent deciding to retire after all of this hard work he's put in. I'm thinking he popped dirty at probation.

Poor guy. I like him. Hope he gets his ish together.

 

[Wheeltax]

I think it does save money, it just means the team retains his rights if he wants to come back

 

[popp1234]

Overreact much?

 

[CyberB0b]

Oh, well. Good riddance. Wasn't worth the headache for a fringe starter.
