protest all the police killings of unarmed Black men going on in many parts of the country, opportunities dried up.

It's pretty obvious he got black balled as no team would touch him or even bring him into pre-season training to take a look.

The only thing was that "tryout" a couple of years ago that didn't pan out...he switched it to a different location at the last minute because of his paranoia of the League's intentions.

I've followed the story pretty closely as he's a fraternity brother of mine and that incident I just mentioned, was the only "opportunity" he's had.

Pretty obvious he was black balled.
