Jordan gets another chance through Regenerative Medicine. The Patriots are like the boogieman. Your FAs are gonna go win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wit33 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Fascinating, it’s a 100% lock Patriots pick up Reed if chooses to continue playing. I think he decides to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't heard anything and we all know how the DC sports media is when reporting anything they consider to be bad... shoot first, ask questions... maybe... if ever.

Est.1974 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Well it’s great he’s been cleared from protocol. Now retire and stay healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooleyfan1993 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Reed wants a “fresh start”? Fresh start from what? Our IR list to another teams IR list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every year that he got hurt, he quietly worked his ass off in the offseason, to come back the next year, and try to prove all the doubters wrong.

KDawg Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Wouldn't be surprised if the Skins kept him, got another TE in the draft or FA, and rolled with this group with Reed as a bonus. Also wouldn't shock me if Reed were released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veteranskinsfan Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Reed says he wants a fresh start. Many fans want a fresh start without Reed on the team too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't Reed have like a close to a $12 million cap hit this coming season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, if he WERE to stay, it would be great to get him to restructure the hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As opposed to Reed, where if you get a half a season out of him, it's a miracle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But who knows anymore Well, considering Olsen got $7 million for one year in Seattle, I think that sets the TE market. Hooper will cost at least that much.

Est.1974 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 If Reed wants to play, trade him. I’ll take a 6th or 7th rounder to a team like the Pats who want to take a chance on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much risk to be parting with assets when you can just get him for nothing later. Demand probably wont be that high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanguard Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 He JUST got cleared from protocol? He is a great tight end. But who wants to take the risk? He’s had about six concussions. If he plays again, I think it will be here. But if he goes, he’ll be more successful there than he was here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the contract isn’t guaranteed money. Team like the Dolphins say with 90mil plus in space, late round pick to take on his contract. Assess through camp, restructure, cut etc. But yes, release him and move one realistically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeken24 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 A man has to chart his own path. If Reed wants to play, keep him. Right now, he's in concussion protocol. But it's no different than a man continuing to work in coal mine when he knows he'll end it with possible respiratory issues or worse. Or a Soldier knocking down a door with the possibility of....(fill in the blank). Ideally Reed could take his money and live a reasonably comfortable life. But a man's dream and drive is a man's dream and drive. Let him be and hope for the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
