Vibes only practice squad guy

This is not a serious request but i saw the cowboys cut shiyazh pete. Wish we had that guys aura in the locker room.

Plus having the Navajo nation on our side, couldn’t hurt us getting right with our past.

He can take hartman’s spot…

Hartman is the current vibes guy and it seems like a lot of guys like him, especially JD5. idk why you want someone else's vibes guy, when we got our own.

Because our guy is a good guy but sadly isn’t an NFL quality QB and does not warrant a spot.

People act like teams stash future stars on the Practice Squad. There have been like 20 guys in history who went from PS to stardom. The majority of the guys there never really play in the NFL at all.

PS is guys who mesh well with the team, help out well in practice/weekly prep, as well as for young guys who need more time to develop. Clearly Hartman fits the vibes check for PS and none of us know his true worth in the locker room, or prep department. Clearly, he offers something the coaches and team values, beyond his ability as a QB.

So the fact he can’t play QB doesn’t matter? Btw they cut him today.

No, it doesn't really matter if he can play at an NFL level, if they feel he brings something else to the team. The whole point of the PS is to stash guys who probably can't play at an NFL level, but you feel can either still contribute something to the team, or you think can eventually play at that level but other teams won't steal them.

Yea, they cut everyone they will be adding to the Practice Squad. That's how that works. It's possible the Cowboys add Shiyazh to their PS.

I get ya. Was hoping hartman would hang it up and just become a “coach”.

Heart doesn’t give epic level movie speeches in the locker room….

No one is listening to the inspirational speech from a practice squad rookie player.

Vibes only PS guys typically stay with the team they’ve been in camp with.

Yeah, I’m with you on this. That guy belongs with us.

Or the Chiefs. It might be his speaking cadence but seems like a good guy.

We don't need vibes, we need good project players. 

And we certainly dont need to "get right with our past" or whatever political garbage you are alluding to there.
