    Stallworth's career in the NFL is over I think. Whether you believe in a second chance or whatever.

    It may be over, but it won't be without a look by another team.

    Someone will give him a shot.

  • I can see him playing for the Bengals next season.

  • If the bengals dont grab him the raiders will...i believe his termination had more to due with the fact he has been an unproductive player most of his career and not worth his pay rather than the accident..he will play again but will be a non factor as he always has been..nice to see this regime sweeping the house of bad contracts by savage...😉

    How this guy qualified for a 5 million dollar bonus is beyond me. I, too, am happy to see regime erase the Savage footprint.

  • after on season in philly, heckert didn't have any interest in keeping him so this shouldn't come as a suprise to any one. the dude has had lingering hamstring issues. he's about as sturdy as lee suggs.

    just one of a few bad contracts signed by opie cunningham savage. it's like phil had no negotiating skills or something.

  • I agree.

    Just call him Dainty Stallworth......lot's of talent, but a whole lot of maintenance required.

    Kind of like a MG I had 30 years ago.....looked great....when it wasn't in some shop.

    No debating it- over the last 10 years the Bengals have led the league in DUI arrests. 🙂
