What the heck is going on with this guy? Is he just reading the writing on the wall and getting depressed about it (understandable) or is there something else happening here? I've read that he looks much better physically and on the field right now and he has put in a ton of work in the offseason. So why after all that, is this going on? What ever is happening with him, if he wants to make it in this league he needs to suck it up and get out there and win a job.
For my part I would prefer to have Tyler Thigpen as one of the backups on this team along with Chad Pennington. I think that gives the Dolphins the best Qb situation in the league. There is no way they will keep 4 Qb's on the roster going into the season, but I don't think they will cut him or try to put him on the practice squad. I have been thinking though since there are some strange rules governing the backup Qb's, when you can bring in the #3 guy and so forth, perhaps they might sacrifice another spot on the roster and call him a RB or WR so they can sustitute him in in the "Pat White Package" and not be subject to those rules?
Frankly, I don't really like that thought and he should earn a spot or be gone, but with the Dolphins bringing in that AFL QB for a tryout with the intention of him being on the practice squad, it really makes me wonder.
