Incognito still out of a job. really nfl?

[gowazzu02]

Incognito, a good, potentially above average nfl olineman (he made the probowl in 2012) Is still without a job.

He is essentially blacklisted from the nfl, he didn't knock his fiance unconscious, then drag her limp body around. He didn't run over someone while drunk/high killing them, he didn't shoot himself while in a club, he didn't go to jail for a dog killing ring, He didn't get busted for drugs, he didn't get busted for steroids, he didn't get arrested for anything.......what he did was he was mean to a 300 pound grown ass man and got tattled on.

And he's basically blacklisted from the league, anyone else with me finding this crazy.

Theres no team out there with oline probs?

This guy will be signed eventually.

He will eventually get signed. There is more to his story than just the bullying in Miami though. He has been a lockerroom issue pretty much everywhere he has gone and seems to find some kind of legal trouble just about everywhere he goes. So teams have to weight that in while also the whole media frenzy that would come with bringing him on.

he's on my madden ultimate team though

"He said mean things" - pussies

what he did was he was mean to a 300 pound grown ass man and got tattled on.

I spent the better part of an afternoon reading that entire transcript. I went into it thinking it would crucify Incognito and by the time I was done, I was wishing I had the dude for a friend.

I'd think most teams would avoid a guy who might be a serious clubhouse problem more than a guy who has legal trouble...you can usually throw money around to fix law problems, messing up the team's chemistry is more problematic.

Let's call it what it really was. This has PC pansy bullshit written all over it.

Incognito was your father's NFL...Michael Sam is the NEW face of the league!

You REALLY want to take a chance on pissing off every black guy on your team?

He's had some assault charges, but basically been a A-hole for the most part...just needs to grow the f up and realize he's in the pro ranks imo...I could see a player putting a hit on him...not with pads.

Strictly for that reason...IDK that he will get picked up until near the end of camps when teams look to patch holes after the cutdowns.

You can't say that. Riley Cooper was called out last year for slag talk on a video, everyone of his teammates respect him and the steps he's cleared up the issues...

Would love to see Michael Sam on Incognito.

Wait, that didn't come out quite right.

Heyyyy-oooo

Many of the black players on his own team were standing up for him saying this whole situation was being blown out of proportion so I don't see another team having trouble taking him in. At this point it comes down to the PR nightmare it would be for a team to bring him in.

Honestly I am surprised the whole Ray Rice thing hasn't been a bigger deal than it has and that he isn't being blacklisted like that of Icognito. I would say beating your wife to the point of unconsciousness is a bit more serious than bullying a teammate. Both are bad but I as a fan would rather have Icognito on my team way before a guy like Ray Rice after what he did.

Yep next they'll call it soccer instead of football

LOL Hammer!! Huwaryu has it correct.

Domestic violence is commonplace in the NFL. Brandon Marshall has at least 6 documented cases of beating the crap out of his woman. Nobody cared. The only reason anyone cares about Rice is because the video was leaked. I mean...does anyone care about Greg Hardy? His case is worse the Rice's.
