I’m not sure how so many professional players get themselves into such desperate financial situations. If they would just follow my “Live on a Third” philosophy they would be fine. TO should absolutely not play for this team. He will play for an NFL team at the right price -not his right price – but he can still play.
The problem with TO exposing himself to playing against guys that would love nothing more than to smash TO’s body ending any chance to return to the NFL. Hopefully, TO gets things together because I would hate to see the guy go out like this.
But, you have to admit that he made his bed. Guys like TO and Allen Iverson do not build good will and when they find themselves down and out there are very few people willing to step in and help.
