That’s awesome. I hope the XFL grows and does well. Would be cool if South Carolina could form a team in that league.

He posted a few weeks ago that he felt he was too good to go the XFL route and was asking what fans thought. I guess he had a change of heart. Hope he gets another shot in the NFL. His window is closing but love watching him play.

Apparently 32 NFL teams disagree. I do feel he's a good safety. But it seems he's done something to acquire a bad rep in The League.

I don’t think it’s a bad rep as much as he’s just gotten older and not many players play in the NFL as long as even he has. They’re going to go get a younger guy for less money unless he’s dominant.

I want to XFL to succeed if for no other reason than to give aspiring professional football players who have no interest in obtaining a college education an opportunity to turn pro right out of high school.

I love DJ. Wish he was on staff here in some capacity. Not sure what he's looking for in the XFL.

Yeah, that was my first thought as well. He said he thought he'd be taking a step back to play in the XFL. I reckon he decided it's a good chance to audition for an NFL spot this fall.
