This is the reason the Skins had the chance to sign Chamberlain in the first place. He showed up for his injury rehab out of shape and WAAY overweight and so they put him in a conditioning program and he was lazy there. That's why they cut him the day they were allowed to cut him after his injury time had expired.
This is also the reason to be glad that Joe Gibbs is looking for "character" and "work ethic" in his players.
Somebody else will sign Chamberlain because he is talented and someone will believe that they have the key that will unlock that talent and get him to work hard. Not likely that is going to work. Chamberlain will probably be out of the NFL in two more years.
