yes and no. i think it would be beneficial to bring him in as the #3 QB to help Bradford and Campbell learn the offense. He's familiar with the offense and would fill the same role Todd Collins filled when we brought Al Saunders.... except, you know, Todd actually could still play. Of course, i'd rather have Sage if he were cut by the Vikings.

In this scenario, why not just pay Snake to be an assistant QB coach?

#1 Jake Plummer is not a fan of Mike Shanahan and hasn't passed up an opportunity to bash him. Shanahan benched Plummer when he had led the broncos to a winning record and were in the playoff hunt

#2 Jake Plummer has been outta football for two years

#3 This is KYLE Shanahan's offense, of course with elements of Mike's philosophies (Zone blocking run game, etc.) but more Kyle's. He'll be calling the plays. i AM NOT a rex grossman fan, but he was at least IN the league last year AND studied with Kyle and his offense.

Please no more with the Jake Plummer references

Having spoken to Plummer multiple times I would tell you that unless something has changed in the past year a) he has no intention of ever playing football again b) he has no intention of ever doing anything for Shanahan

Does Tampa still own his rights or did they settle that?

Either way I agree, chances of him coming back seem slim to none.

Tampa had his rights until the end of this past season. He's technically free to sign anywhere now
