He could be the next Jerry Rice, but that will never happen if he can't play and he sure can't seem to stay healthy...

Arsaint what's up!!

I agree with JeanPierre...

Choot 'em!

AA must have tunnel vision, there's a reason he gets bummed up often. was'nt there a time we called him gumby. its like he can catch the rock but forgets his legs behind him in a tangle. this has to be it for him. love him always liked the guy, but i believe its cut city for him, sorry.

A big part of what AA had to do this year was be available.
He's played what? 5 games in 4 years? How much does he make?
I like AA and his skill set, but he's useless if he can't be there when we need him.

Drop this guy. This is a waste of money. Almost 5 years with this team and he has given this team nothing in return.

Time to cut bait with this guy.

With the offense being complicated, I see why they kept him around as a backup even with his bothersome injuries. Thing is, when he was called in for that specific duty it didn't work so well.

I wish him the best but I think it's over and that's probbly a good thing for him. There are several teams that are seriuosly hurting at WR. If he heals up I could see him latching on somewhere and having an impact.

Surgery is usually the quick fix... Rehab would mean more time and living with the possibility of a recurring injury.

Trade Arrington and Shanle for a new Strength and conditioning coach.
