They literally cut muscles from his thigh/quad area and sewed it into his calf as calf muscles bc his calf muscles and soft tissue got eaten by a flesh eating bacteria.

No wonder those quad muscles they removed and sewed into his calf started having spasms and fatigue after 3-4 weeks.

No way an NFL team can commit 24M in cap space to a QB that realistically can only give you 4 games or so. Release him with a thank you and a nice press release, 10.8M in dead money but we save 13.2M in cap for this offseason.

(assuming theres not some weird cap accounting re insurance dan snyder took out that makes it more cap friendly to keep him vs release)

Yeah I get he is a TOUGH SOB but he has nothing else to prove, dude was 5-1 and won the division. It's time to walk away, honestly I'm surprised the team hasn't released him yet.
