He contacted Tyler last year to ask him how he set up his business & got his clients as he wanted to do the same thing where he lives in Ohio. Tyler told me the story is legit. The Lions rushed Jennings back too soon. His shoulder never recovered. Buono did nothing to protect him from further injury & it cost Jennings his career.

The Lions (Wally) panicked & rushed Jennings back too soon. His shoulder never recovered. Buono did nothing to protect him from further injury & it cost Jennings his career. You wonder if Wally did the same to Travis Lulay. He kept reinjuring that shoulder over & over. Wally kept trotting him out whenever he could play instead of giving him sufficient time to heal. It was sad to watch Lulay suffer. Especially that game in Ottawa in 2014 when he got hurt. That injury was the end for Travis. Then there was Nathan Rourke's Lysfranc foot injury. He was rushed back too early according to modern medical practices & Rick Campbell was okay with it. He didn't seem very concerned with Rourke's long term health. These coaches..... #JustWinBaby If this is true, it destroys any respect that Buono had.. BigBlueFanatic and Mark H. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say it was the expectation for any player up until very recently. Even today, you heard crap that Lamar Jackson should have been starting for the Ravens this year and that he was using the injury to negotiate his contract.

I deleted the 2nd paragraph as it was just my opinion only. I don't know if Wally was the bad guy or not regarding Lulay. 25 minutes ago, Jesse said: I would say it was the expectation for any player up until very recently.

Fatty Liver Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 6 hours ago, Jpan85 said: Not according to the article Blast from the past, in that article they mentioned Alex Ross as a backup QB for the Lions the same time Jennings was there. I believe he played pretty well in a few Bomber exhibition games in 2018, the same year Strevy showed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You miss the point completely on his many teams. His teams don’t want to pay him so he leaves. Regularly. Add in age and no thanks. If he wasn’t a “name” you wouldn’t care this much. It isn’t 2018 any more. I mean, you’re the same guy asking for Biggie to not be here. You want Micah Johnson though? Hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOBomberFan Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 The 3DN article mentions the Bombers were in on Jennings in 2018 but he opted to go to OTT... earlier that same offseason, Durant was expected to be our backup, but he took his signing bonus and retired instead... being spurned by these 2 forced us to bring in Alex Ross and some nobody named Chris Streveler to camp Thanks JJ and Darian Durant!

bustamente Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 So is there any one of the list apart from Bailey that the Bombers should try to re sign or will they wait till FA begins and try to find a few players to round out the team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Perfect Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 15 hours ago, Booch said: I never doubted it...Demski is a different personality than Harris, and less of for a lack of a better word baby when it comes to certain things...and is more of a FIFO guy than Harris...he gace us some good yrs...helped us get the monkey off our backs, but he also wasnt as FIFO as many are led to believe...and thats from inside the locker room...not just speculation Interesting - but not surprising whatsoever.

Most of the others should be able to be replaced rather easily. The one other answer I am looking for is Shoen, does he return and sign longer term or does he have an NFL opportunity to pursue? Without Shoen I would like to see a free agent received (Lawler / Lewis) here but with Shoen I think we can pass on both those guys and save the $$ for other spots. Really hoping the scouts have the big run stopping, pile pushing DT already in their sights down south. Jesse, Wideleft and rebusrankin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my personal opinion, but I think Schoen would be the biggest "add" to this roster and I have a lot of appreciation for Kenny Lawler's talent. Would also love to see a really solid add at DT. rebusrankin, Tracker, GCJenks and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
