Why was the timeline so specific? I guess there's a chance it was a throwaway line and what he really meant to say was "as soon as possible," but even so... a bit weird. It wasn't the end of this week, but the end of next week. Can't help but wonder if they're waiting on something.
Zeke's agent put that out there to make it look like there was this big interest by teams wanting to sign Zeke when the reality is there is probably little interest from most teams. There are some teams like the Bengals that could use a RB like Zeke but he is going to be a 3rd down back type and he is not going to get a big multiyear contract. Zeke's agent can try to drum up support for Zeke but its not going to change how teams view Zeke at this point in his career
