He is already a national champion. Already a 1st team All-American and would have been drafted higher than Okudah if eligible this year. If he was a basketball player he would be signed to make millions right now. But he has to stay in college for two more years and again watch DBs he is better than get their money next year. Obviously we all think playing in the P&G is a good thing and I'm sure he enjoys it as well but I do wonder if he is somewhat regretting the 3 year NFL rule right now. Definitely hope he invests in a nice insurance policy the next two seasons to protect himself.


EDIT: I still cant help but find it hilarious that we live a capitalist society where everyone is allowed to look for the biggest profit possible but athletes are supposed to be like "Yeah frick money. I just want to risk breaking my neck every week for pure fun." That sounds like some crazy SJW stuff to me just saying...

If so, he should be mad at his future teammates in the NFL. The players union is who approved this rule.

And he doesn’t have to play college football. He can sit out and train, he could play Canadian football, he could play arena football.

There is nothing keeping him in college football other than his own choices.

Best DB in America coming off a national championship season and his GF is smoking hot.... yeah he’s probably punching the air right about now!

Technically it's not their money until they sign on the dotted line.

Well he has nothing to regret because he did nothing.

The NFL made the rule.

This is a capitalist society where businesses can determine their own hiring practices.

For every Stingley there are 100s of other freshmen who are going to try and go pro and faiL and they would be done.

The NFL would rather have a free minor league

What makes the NFL any different than other companies that have experience and/or age requirements to hire someone?

I've never judged a take before. Yours is the worst at least this calendar year.

He chose football. Stfu.

which is why the NFL has decided not to let 18 year olds in.

literally every single job on the planet has minimum requirements.

some are as simple as being able to breathe on your own.
some require years of schooling and specialized training.
many have minimum age requirements.

just because you think you are “ready”, doesn’t mean a particular employer HAS to give you a chance.

Those down voters have that "master" mentally that America was founded on. This system must and soon will be abolished

I assume you are against salary caps and revenue sharing as well? You pretty much have to be.

Capitalism is partially the reason the system is how it is. The NFL has a free farm system that allows for their rookies to have maximum exposure when they enter the league.
