'Grateful' Brock Osweiler says he's retiring from NFL

[Enfuego]

He was terrible.

 

[Knightrofins]

But he got PAID!!

 

[FairWarning]

And qualifies for a NFL pension. Good for him.

He retires as the second tallest Qb in NFL history. 6' 7.5 inches is half an inch shorter than Dan McGuire at 6' 8

 

[PhilShiffley]

Wasn't even all that good in college, watched him plenty. Good for him!

 

[Cireboy]

He fkd the NFL for a free life. Well played.

Yup. He was an average Pac12 QB at ASU.

Elway absolutely sucks at evaluating QB's. At least he let HOU pay for most of that.

I think the Cleveland Browns got to pay for most of his salary when he was traded here

 

[Willie99]

He must look good in practice

Lol. Retiring at 28 and banking 41 million

You mean he didn't hire a posse?

That's fkn hilarious!

I can see it. He wasn't making back-up money, less than a million a year. If he was getting $2-3 million a year to hold a clipboard he would have probably stayed in the league. I also wouldn't be surprised if he returns. Some team will lose a QB in the next few years and he might be the best QB available on the street. If they offer enough he will return.

 

[Knightrofins]

The Broncos loved him. He was the "fill in" QB when Peyton was hurt. Luckily, he had a DOMINANT defense.

The Broncos figured they would re-sign him no problem when Peyton Retired until Houston offered him a zillion dollars to play there

 

[Michelangelo]

I always like people more if they express gratitude (to anyone or for anything that has benefited them).

Good luck in retirement, Brock.

PS Ingrates lead my people I disrespect list.

Brock Osweiler and Matt Flynn. Two guys who had just a few good games in their NFL careers, and managed to turn that into $41 million and $19 Million dollars respectively. Amazing.

I was PISSED when Matt Flynn didn’t join the dolphins and head coach Joe Philbin. Yup, I was wrong haha
