June 20, 201411 yr comment_58469 *If* for some reason he was to play in the CFL I'm sure he would only play for the Blue. But I see him getting signed somewhere else as depth
June 20, 201411 yr comment_58475 At 33, I don't see him coming up here, if anything he'll probably waste another year looking for work down South.
June 20, 201411 yr comment_58477 I was waiting for the annual Idonije thread... 33... he's made his money, doubt he would play for $180-200k... Now, I could see him as an OL coach in Wpg... someday.

June 20, 201411 yr comment_58516 Multiple media reported he says he will retire once he is done in the NFL... but hey, who knows, maybe he'll take one crack with the blue and gold
June 20, 201411 yr comment_58613 I expect he would plunge deeply into the charitible associations he is already involved with once he retires. He is very passionate about them Would he put them off for a year or two just to play in the CFL? Only if he is still having fun playing football, doesn't want to quit, and has no NFL takers. And even that doesn't get him in a Bomber jersey. Pretty remote chance.
June 20, 201411 yr comment_58847 in the short term, I could see him as a guest coach during TC if he doesn't sign with another NFL team, but that's about it.
June 21, 201411 yr Author comment_58980 It's awesome to think what it would have like to have him play for the blue as a "national" in his prime ...
