    Thats gotta be strictly a inside information signing right? Watch him take Ben Jones or Taylor Lewan's job haha (yes I know it is different positions).

    Well he showed occasional flashes of competence when it came to his run blocking, maybe they think they can fix his pass blocking. He's certainly cheap enough to take a flier on.

    I thought they liked Mariotta in Tennesee.
    Guess not.

    Watch him become a pro bowler in a non Chinese backwards avocado ice cream offense.

    Are people upset XSF is gone? Dude was one of the worst pass blockers I’ve ever seen. Fulton and Kelemete(def had to look that spelling up) are much better than XSF, granted that’s a very low bar.

    I hope so. We need a durable TE. He's missed like 1 game in the last 5 years. Add in that he was a finalist for the Walter Payton Man of the Year Award, and we would have another great role model for our young players.

    ok , maybe the Texans are bringing him in (which i hope..) although at his age - he is still more productive then what we have.

    XSF sucks, but titans resigned both their starting guards.

    Sounds like their smart enough to make him a backup

    why aren't we taking advantage of the trade market. i've seen so many teams get better this off-season through trades, and we sat out completely. This move, for example, is really smart on Denver's part.
