    The Tits may cut him. Some speculate on the Steelers as a new home for him. I sure hope not. He was benched in favor of Josh Dobbs last year! Unless it was a smokescreen, Tomlin was supposedly high on Willis. There must be a better replacement for the reindeer than that out there. Maybe Paxton Lynch is tired of driving Uber.

    Willis has real talent but it was common knowledge that he is a project. The Titans threw him out there before he was ready.

    mad far as Tomlin’s feelings in him, Pickett was always the number 1 choice. Willis was never going in round 1.

    And then they cast him off after only one season! Yikes. It is like a Josh Rosen situation. He was considered more ready than Willis though.
    If they would take someone like that and develop them, precious draft picks might not be wasted.

    I think the Steelers made a mistake by cutting Chris Oladokun.

    Well they could always poach him off KC’s practice squad I think. At least that’s the last place I saw him.

    Hell yes.... for the right price.


    Wouldn't mind having him on the roster. Now the team has two QBs they were interested in on the roster. Kenny is light years ahead of Malik but should Malik even become a backup QB who is starter capable... that would be a massive, massive win for the low, low cost of next to nothing imo.

    I'd convert him to WR. Steelers had success with such conversions in the past like Randal El and such.

    I believe Carson Wentz is available. Brings a lot of experience as a starter and is a veteran QB that could handle spot starting duty and the backup QB position. Sounds like he is willing to be a backup and might come pretty reasonable as far as cost goes. Might not be a bad option.

    If he has the route running ability, absolutely!!

    If not, then maybe a futures contract like they did with Haskins.

    Everything that I read about Wentz’s personality suggests that he’s not a good teammate and locker room guy.

    Exactly. I remember a lot of fans bashing Colbert for that 7th round pick. Well, he's good enough for Andy Reid who I think we can all agree is a pretty good judge of a QB.

    Perhaps but now that he knows he's not the starter maybe he can function in that role. I would hope he realizes that he's going to have to prove himself all over again. That might be enough to keep any of those issues in check

    Hey, he'll always be a Super Bowl Champion Quarterback. He doesn't HAVE to say he was on the practice squad.

    If the Titans do cut him, I'm sure Tomlin will come calling..... We already have our franchise QB, so we're in a position to actually develop him

    Based on previous conversations I think she may be a freshman in high school
