Clearly,training camp is a BIG grind.
Some players have obviously skipped it yet still managed to then play a full season. Michael Strahan skipped camp entirely, basically admitted it, and then showed up to play. This is also my theory about Favre - he drags all of this out to avoid the TC grind, but will show up to play another season. Watch.
I also believe that NFL teams are complicit in this maneuver, though for obvious reasons they could never admit it.
That got me thinking, is there a chance that Burgess is also just plain sick of camp? At some point, he will "come to his senses", and rejoin the team?
Sounds far-fetched. LOL. I would go for >50% that he is playing OLB for the Pats this season, but then I love intrigue and conspiracy theories.
thoughts?
