00:32Why was it tweeted out?

00:35Wow Tyler Huntley

00:38Is he going by that

00:43Sometimes people, you know change their name, you know

00:48If you're Scotty Thompson you must be thinking man, they must really think

00:52I'm garbage. No, if I mean you must be happy that they brought in

00:58someone so mobile like Tyler Huntley

01:03Amazing

01:04Here's what's amazing. What was this for a guy begging for for mobile? That is about as a mobile as a slug

01:13You know, we want what we can't have. That's true

01:1640-yard dash for him 4.5. Pretty good. Seems like this offense want some me

01:22He is a former Pro Bowl Pro Bowl quarterback. Where was he? Did he go to UCLA?

01:28He went to Utah

01:32He is a Broward yeah, he went to Holland, Ohio

01:38Very very interesting that we get another mobile quarterback. Oh, he's a he's an intangible to Huntley

01:45I'm thinking of it was not

01:47He's not a tangible though. The one you're the one we're talking about is not a snoop snoop

01:53No, but didn't have a Huntley that went to UCLA

01:58I'm not gonna rule out that in the history of UCLA there were no Huntley's but I do not know of which one you were

02:03Speaking of he's talking about Brett Huntley

02:05or Hundley

02:07They were holding the Leroy pulling a UFC where they call him Terrence Crawford Kent Kendrick Lamar

02:15I was crazy

02:20Okay, so so that we're going all-in on Skyler

02:23Essentially this signing it says going for a vet to us in concussion protocol scholar Thompson is in line to start Sunday and see Alice

02:30From Tom Pels are Huntley now could be a factor in coming weeks as well

02:34So scholar Tom's scholar Tom's is on like a one-week audition. It seems like

02:38Just get the veteran like I don't understand because because because if wait a minute, hold on. Yeah

02:47You realize how much money quarterbacks are getting paid Oh

02:56You understand how much quarters get paid yes

02:59What former starting quarterback that's older is just gonna come in to be a backup

03:07Jimmy Garoppolo

03:16Yeah, he plays he's back up for the Rams

03:17Yeah, he is he is and apparently tiny hills not like Tannehill's being uh, he's he's not

03:24No, he's literally not signing with anybody unless he gets to start the rest of the year

03:27No, yeah, the dolphins the dolphins don't

03:34Like he doesn't want I get it like if you're him you don't have to play like you're only gonna want to play if you

03:39Get it if you got a starting gig

03:42But um, I

03:45Don't mean but he's probably like to was probably gonna play again, dude. Yeah, he is

03:52Probably

03:55There was a month I can't explain like

04:01the different

04:03Variations of a concussion part of it is you can't right?

04:09That's why you have to let it take its course and then you can determine

04:15You know how bad it was or whatever. I just hate that. We're in a place

04:21Where it's not whether

04:24Tua is healthy or not

04:27But it's how it looks

04:29you understand what I'm saying and

04:32That's where we are. So if to it, huh, it looks very bad. It looks arguably the worst ever

04:39It's not

04:47You can't deny the

04:50Physicality of the sport. Yeah, but I think everybody's I think everybody's point to it with it looking that bad is is

04:57That it didn't seem like that physical a play

05:00You know

05:02For it to have it's for it to for his body to react the way that it did

05:07Well, I'm not here to react

05:09But I'm just telling you that's that's that's the normal person watching. We run a national televised game, right?

05:15some

05:18Sometimes like

05:20you get hit and

05:22It's not your head but more of your nerves and I don't know whether it's all attached or whatever

05:30But I've been hit before and had to like couldn't feel my arm for a couple of minutes

05:36But I didn't have a concussion

05:39right, so I don't it is it's

05:43There's so many things behind it. That's why I

05:46Say this

05:49When he's cleared to play he's cleared to play if he's not cleared to play he's not cleared to play there are people that are

05:56far

05:58better at

06:00Determining whether he is cleared to play or not

06:03So instead of sitting here and watching TV when I've had concussions and still can't figure them out

06:11right and

06:13And I'm really tired of hearing everybody else talk about what tour should or shouldn't do without fully

06:20Understanding the situation because I told a buddy of mine

06:25They say just retire and get the money. You don't get the money if you're tired and you're medically cleared

06:29I say but I tell you what

06:32I've walked this earth for a while

06:34Ain't nobody turning that money away

06:37Stop acting like you would oh, that's enough. I would stop lying

06:42People know they

06:45Don't go ahead and try to get that money

06:48Stop acting like you would you know, just oh, no, there's a bigger like yeah

06:54So stop. I'm not gonna tell to it what he should or shouldn't do

06:59Decision but for people to just all of a sudden say what they would do in that situation

07:04Stop it. Yeah, but here's the thing though

07:06The one thing that I would I would I would argue with you on that is we've already had the situation

07:11Without him getting any of a big contract because he has gotten money from the contract, right?

07:16And and and he could walk away set up for his life just fine

07:20And he's already they've already had

07:22the discussion his family the last time before he even had the contract and this was a thing that he was

07:28Considering or they or there were people in his family who wanted him to consider

07:32Walking away

07:33So now that it is and I don't think he's going to I think the idea that he's gonna play is pretty obvious

07:38I know that to it wants to play football

07:40But that they they are in a better position to do it if he wanted to I don't I don't think it's just a money

07:47thing to be honest, I

07:49Think it I think to it just wants to play football. Let's let's add the other

07:54aspect of this

07:57There is no person

07:59That has been under a microscope

08:03More than two

08:04For reasons we still can't explain

08:07Right. Sure. The guy doesn't bad-mouth anybody

08:11Nothing. He's just been he's a sinner of all conversations

08:15Even when he didn't have concussions, right?

08:19from an athlete's perspective

08:23The one thing that you hope you can do in your career is

08:27Go out the way you want to go out and go out on your own terms. Mm-hmm and

08:35Part of this also that's probably running through his mind is I got to show people that I

08:44Can play this game and I can be successful at this?

08:49Mm-hmm, and that eat at you that that eats at you constantly

08:53And that's the part of where people talk about the money and all that stuff

08:58Let's be clear first things first. That man is one hell of a competitor, of course

09:06Wasn't it recently that Chris Bosch when he was at Goran's

09:09Retirement and he goes sometimes you don't get a farewell, right?

09:13Not everybody. Well, and he also said that your career ending is like a death

09:18especially when it's not on your terms and you're

09:2133 34 years old at the peak of your powers and you feel fine, but doctors are telling you no, right?

09:27exactly, so there's

09:31While we sit here talk about the money and being set and all that as an athlete

09:37He's thinking about this

09:39totally different

09:41He's thinking about listen to all the crap. He's had to hear about his career

09:47All the people saying never should have gave him the money it's not about the money

09:54It's about his ability to play and show that he can do it and then maybe get to a point where he can leave on

10:00his own terms

10:01That's like that that to an athlete

10:06Had take is more than money to being able to show you belong amongst all these elite football players

10:13Football players, that's that that's more about money. In fact, I turned down money

10:21Because I knew that if I went out there and tried to play I would look like a clown

10:26You should have payroll banded it though. No, I could I might I couldn't let myself do it

10:32Some guys can I couldn't do it
