Any chance of kicking the tires on Vontaze Burfict? Know it seems crazy but still only 30 years old. Guessing though he hasn’t kept himself in shape.

I would “kick those tires” — but if Vontaze Burfict has a “spare tire” around his middle then forget it.

Wait.

Is Vontaze even eligible to play? Has he been suspended by the NFL or just by the Raiders?

Nothing like ruining some decent team chemistry by brining Vontaze in lol no thanks… PS I’m a huge Tez fan but that ship has sailed.

I'd say there's little chance that he's anywhere close to playing shape. He came in fat a time or two when he was playing.

No way. His play was already slipping and he was an injury prone penalty machine. He also hasn’t played in two years and had a run in with the law for a battery charge last year. There’s no value. Dudes done.

His arrest video from 2020 had him looking kind of soggy...


In case you wanted to see for yourself..

Burfict had at least 7 documented concussions just as a Bengal. Even if he was in the best shape of his life, it would be near-criminal for any team to let him play football.

NO THX to Burfict, he was great for a few yrs but hes not the type of player we need right now...I would have gone for Josh Bynes coming back but he is back in BALT last I saw. 

Yeah, no thanks. Some of the crap he did, like twisting ankles, was just stupid.

**** it.  Did the Bucs flinch with AB?  Swing hard and hope that you hit.  If he can play, try him out.

Serious CTE going on inside that man's brain. No thanks. I did not want him when we got him, but he made me change my mind and I was glad we had him, until he made me change it again with his shennanigans.

This is exactly why #55 still hangs in my closet.  You never know.

We didn't have either one of those the last 3 seasons Burfict was around. Honestly he wasn't worth a damn after 2015, and peaked in 2013.

#55 is already taken. Keep those ideas coming tho.
