If he is cut, he won't have to sign with anyone for peanuts. He can wait and watch a QB go down and a playoff type team in dire need. He can spend a year with his wife and kids. AD does not seem like the kind of guy driven by money, so he may welcome a year off. He may also land in a broadcast booth, he speaks well and is a very smart football guy.

I don't feel bad for him, financially.  But I look at a guy that took over a team that quitter quit on and everyone expects to go 0-16 and make 5 straight playoff appearances.  I will always wonder about that 2015 team, much like our 2005 team.  It isn't the money, but the lack of opportunity.  It is a VERY odd time for FA QBs.  You have two #1 OVERALL draft picks that were released with zero compensation.  You have another first rounder (Mariotta) looking for a starting gig.  It is just the perfect storm for him.

I appreciate the way the guy played, carried himself, and represented his community.  I would just like to see him get a shot somewhere else.  

I disagree about broadcasting...Andy is a bit monotone and bland in his speaking ability, but that could just be what he shows the media.
