He expected the new regime to just sit their 1st round pick, and the dude they traded a 5th round pick for, and welcome him with open arms to give him the opportunity to find out if he could even play football still, but it sounds like he didn't even know if he could do it. Well no shit... C'mon, who is he kidding?

It's truly an amazing story, but I think that has to be the last chapter, right? At least in Washington... They don't owe him anything, and if the organization is serious about getting better, he can't be coming back.

Maybe he should call up Urban Meyer and see if he needs a mentor for their new rookie.
This. Part of being the first man to ever come back from a previous career-ending injury most likely means the amount of people who believe you can come back from it is a small circle at best. Like if he had failed, nobody would've been shocked just because of the severity.

I'm sure he used it as motivation and I'm happy he proved us all wrong, but it still doesn't change our need to get younger and better. Nobody still knows if his leg can still hold up under an entire season.

I hope after he retires he doesn't hold any ill will against us for our position, I think maybe he just got caught up in the moment.
