John Carlson reportedly to be cut by Minnesota Vikings
And this was the guy who turn us down and sign with the Vikings.
Tight end John Carlson won't have the opportunity to thrive under new Minnesota Vikings offensive coordinator Norv Turner this season. Unable to find common ground on a restructured contract, the Vikings will release Carlson, Fox Sports' Mike Garafolo reports. Carlson lasted two seasons into a five-year, $25 million contract that left NFL observers scratching their heads in March of 2012. He collected $9.55 million in guarantees over two seasons while contributing 40 receptions, 387 yards and one touchdown. After his third NFL concussion ended his 2013 season, Carlson acknowledged retirement as an option. As evidenced by his unsuccessful contract discussions, it appears that the 29-year-old has decided to play a seventh season. The Vikings have plenty of salary-cap space to spare. They didn't need the $2 million in savings, which suggests this was strictly a football decision. Although Carlson's concussion history makes him a risky signing, it will be interesting to see if the Seahawks consider a reunion with Zach Miller's Seattle future up in the air. |

I don't get it. I am getting to where I never get the jokes at this place anymore. It's a tragic sign of the times, guess i'm old.

Relax, the grammar Goebbels had a gaff.
I'm just saying, SNaRc has been a more...Loki deserving poster of late. Pissed off, playing above and below the rules, taking the $#it stick and waving it in faces...

When was the last time you even posted in a football related thread other than to bitch about it?

Uh no. Mega Threads suck. They don't get updated often enough and it doesn't stop other posters from starting a new thread about every player that is cut or released.
