    Don't like that move one bit. Colquitt was sitting on the couch for a reason.

    Well, I said it in my previous post...  Here ya go Steve...   https://www.nfl.com/stats/player-stats/category/punts/2021/REG/all/puntingaverageyards/desc

    Fan Fave Jamie ranks 31st in the NFL in punting average of guys who have more than 20 punts...  And I love the guy... But you're only as good as your last kick.  As Bill Belichick would say "released due to diminishing skills".... I'll take that back (checking)... He wasn't much better last year either.  And our new guy Colquitt wasn't any better in 2020. So we traded one bum punter for another bum punter. Ray Guy he isn't.

    FWIW, there's plenty of FG kickers sitting on the couch waiting for the phone to ring too.  🙂

    Went from a training camp cult hero to the scapegoat in KC. He catches that snap, or boots it somewhere, anywhere, he's still here.

    I had a feeling he was outtie... Thats too bad... on to the next...

    I wonder if he will get picked up anywhere ?  An exciting but brief career just below the NFL pension I think.

    Exciting for a bit, a hard job to lose !  Picked up $139,602 in incentives in a few years.

  • Colquitt was doing a nice job.  Perhaps they see him as a better fit also.  A family man.  As opposed to whatever the hammer is.

    We should draft Cade York, LSU - kicker.

    Yes something needs to be done there. The last 2 kickers we drafted didn't pan out so well (Zane Gonzalez, Austin Seibert).

    Yeah.  We weren't too good at drafting QB's either.  Does Phil Dawson have a son?

    And I even have a Scottish Hammer T-shirt.  ? No really, you have to go to the second page of punter stats to find him. 43 yard average, and the top guys are around 48. Don't know what happened to his leg this year.

    I say because the hammer is always getting COVID.  And it's only the punter...and he's not doing great anyway...and his fill in was doing fine.   Do ya say bye to the covid factory and keep the family man?

    I say bye because Colquit is far better at placing the ball deep behind the other team's 20 y.l. The hammer also outkicked his coverage too often without also placing it OOB so it was not returnable.

    BTW look who stands at #2.  Only the f'n Browns do this shit.   https://www.nfl.com/stats/player-stats/category/punts/2021/PRO/all/puntingaverageyards/desc

    I have no idea what being a "family man" has to do with anything, but if the Browns thought he was putting himself and the team in jeopardy regarding his behavior and contracting Covid, then yes, ciao Hammer of Scottish descent... 

  • I say draft the next Tom Tupa - so we can have our starting punter also be our backup QB, and pay him a punter salary! That would give us an extra roster spot for a competent lineman of some sort...

    Hammer ? the parting kicker ?   Did he party his way out of a good paying job and oh so close to locking up an NFL pension ?

    I think he might have been a bit injured too something he might not want to talk about...... just sayin'.

    Like all young Lad's n' Lasses... I don;t think he drank anymore than his fair share of his peers and colleagues... I thought he was a pretty good young kid.. Never thought of him as a trouble maker but certainly no angel.. He was a good young dude.. I hope he gets on ok...

    I think in bygone decades let's say before the 80s they used to party a LOT like it's 1999.  I think that they are more scrutinized now than ever.

    And nothing wrong with young guys and gals having fun.....god knows we did !

    Good for him... Had to look it up, as a tenured practice squad guy Jamie will make $14,000 a week as long as he sticks. Pays the hotel bills.  Yeah, they only get paid for 16 games max, but if you stretch that out to a year, it works out to over $700,000.  🙂
