What's this about? Maybe this is why they grabbed that obscure WR?

Why the hell is a receiver who's six-foot-six retiring in just his second year? What kind of job could he possibly have lined up that would be more lucrative than playing for the NFL veteran minimum?

But I agree, this was a shocker as I thought he might be able to be able to become an important role player. Of course I did read this, which suggest that in mini-camp, he was behind Yancey and Moore. If so, then maybe he saw the writing on the wall, or doesn't love it, didn't want to fight for it?

At minicamp, even with Randall Cobb excused and Geronimo Allison injured, the No. 1 three-receiver package featured Davante Adams, Yancey and rookie J’Mon Moore. That was surprisingly low on the pecking order for a player who looked like an ascending player.




Though I have really been surprised at the amount of players across the league that have been signed and retiring before camp. Not even going try to battle it out through camp.

-Practice squad players don't make that much cash if he has a decent job offer outside of football he could be making comparable bucks right away.

-His switch to football was always more of an experiment a player his size who's so raw probably fails 90% of the time.

-With Yancey and the 3 rooks he probably knew his odds of making the 53 were tiny.

-Possible injury concern

Just some reasons off the top of my head Clark may have decided to retire.

Edit: 7200 per week is about 30% more than I thought they made. 120k a year is not too shabby but no guarantee he makes it this year. If he landed a job paying 70k+ with potential advancement it wouldn't be too bad. Nice making money via your mind instead of sacrificing your body.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?
Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : In your face, HBO!

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?
Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career
Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim
Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?
Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.
packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off
Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk
Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?
Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : How is Theo alliteration?
Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Bad week for people whose names are alliterations
Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hulk Hogan gone too.
Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Oh, it's toe injury
Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hope it's not serious. that would stink
dfosterf (24-Jul) : Sounds like an ankle not a knee for Fields
dfosterf (24-Jul) : Ya Flaccp on Browns
Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : No sir. I did not.
dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?
wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.
dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it
Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty
wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.
