I think “surprise” is putting it lightly. LolThe only thing that would really surprise me when it comes to the QB position this year is if Mac Jones got cut (unprecedented really). Everyone else has a contract/situation that makes them painless to move on from if it came to that.
So bring him in as a coaching assistant. Don’t waste a roster spot on him.
I loved that guy. But Hoyer is more valuable to the team.
But since you brought him up, one of my favorite preseason TDs.
His performance in the KC games was better than most of Cam’s.I thought it was understated. He was absolutely trash in the KC game. Cam was bad but there was hope that he could may be do something. I felt nothing with Hoyer there. The coaches saw what I saw. He is dunsky as a player. He may be an excellent coach and maybe he is here to be a QB/Player coach.
Or Cam’s.....Sounds like he'll be Mac's personal mentor/coach.
Hoyer is worse than all of them though.Because Stidham is hot garbage, Cam isn’t much better, and Jones is a rookie.
Lazar had a good explanation why a QB4 makes sense for them.
Apparently Lewerke was pretty sought after for those side sessions last year.
Ultimately, this is a camp body signing and has no bearing on Newton/Jones.

That’s highly debatable when it comes to Stidham.Hoyer is worse than all of them though.

I know ...agreed....this signing makes NO sense otherwise....Hoyer has been done for awhileIs somebody hurt? That is the only way I can see this signing making any sense!
You couldn't be more wrong. The "know" is all around you.as fans we do not know the master plan for any of this..

Yeah. That's the curious part.
Hoyer is the perfect candidate to be stashed as the 3rd emergency QB on the practice squad running the scout team, mentoring Jones and be available to be promoted to the game day roster a couple of times if needed. Bonus or guaranteed money might make it worth his while to stick around in that capacity beyond the $100,000 or so he can be paid as a practice squad member. It beats working for a living.
I've been saying this for over a year now. That's where his value is, not on the field. I could see him as a long shot, taking Stidham's spot to mentor Jones. We're not keeping 4 QB's after drafting one with the 15th overall pick though.
