We clearly didn’t want him around given that track record and he signs with a team desperate for talented WR help for a marginal amount that we wouldn’t offer.
Good luck, Sammy. You played hard and I loved your after-the-catch downhill attitude.

I'm betting most aren't really hating, but simply realizing what a shame it is how it ended here
He was an extremely likeable and thoughtful guy at face value, dude always seemed to know just what to say and just how to say it... then turned around and backed it up in numerous clutch situations over the years
But 2020 somehow doesn't sit right, maybe I'm wrong but it sure feels like his heart just wasn't in it for whatever reason... maybe we sniffed the scent of a malingerer IMO
Can't get up for the biggest game of all, but he's ready to roll for the Ravens shortly thereafter?
Meh whatevs, maybe I'm wrong but bring on some fresh blood anyway
