I didn't know he signed to the practice squad. That's ok! We can get him back any time we want, as long as we're willing to sign him to the 53-man roster. The only problem is Zorn can't continue to work with him. Not sure why he'd spite us for NO, though. Must have hurt his feelings to have cut him.

I really don't understand why we released him after Colt Brennan was put on IR

It's not on the Saints home page as I write this. The Saints have announce seven signed to the practice squad. Chase wasn't one of those seven.

For another roster spot.

I understand what you are saying but we only have two QB'S.

Actually, we have three QBs on our roster. JC, TC and a college QB that posted big time numbers in college and unlike Colt or Chase he has thrown passes in NFL games. Heck he tossed ey's only TD last year!

Perhaps #21 should be retired too.... (note your signature)

Skins Sign Woodson to Practice Squad

The Redskins have opted to try to sign a bigger quarterback, Kentucky's Andre Woodson, to their practice squad, according to a league source with knowledge of the situation.

Woodson, 25, was a sixth-round draft pick by the New York Giants in 2008. Among his achievements at Kentucky, Woodson, at 6-4, broke the NCAA record of 271 passes (set by Trent Dilfer) without an interception in September 2007. He extended that streak to 325 attempts before it was broken. In the Music City Bowl, he broke the SEC record for passing touchdowns in a season; he eclipsed Danny Wuerffel's record of 39 by one.

I actually love Woodson.. He was a stud at Kentucky.. He'll be a great PS player IMO. But I guess that really isn't saying much.

Chase signed to another teams practice squad? Thats weak. He's lucky we drafted his midget...

Pull Andre in the film room right away and learn Ny's offense, that has to be the thinking here.

Chase wasn't drafted...

Oh yeah, he's lucky we even invited his midget...


It's seriously a slap in our face to go to another teams practice squad

....... Who's his midget? I'm confused

There is NO 3rd stringer that will help us win this year...I like the move of saving Colt by IR'ing him and letting Chase go. While Chase looked good, so did Colt his first preseason. They're playing vs 2nd and 3rd teamers. They'd both be lost playing vs starters full-time. It would be so ugly we'd hate it!!!!

I like giving the roster spot to an athlete that you can use in spots. With ARE on the team, you can use him if you absolutely need him. If they have a situation where both 1 and 2 are hurt longer term, I'd rather them quickly pick up Garcia or someone (Gus??) we know can do the job without being freaked out.

A super good move by Zorn and staff.

I think Colt will get a injury settlement and be sent on his way.
He was a project to start with and was drafted with the team knowing he had a hip problem. This training camp he was challenged by a UDFA, and finished the pre-season with a new hip injury (the other hip, no less) and a bad hammy.

woodsons better than chase or colt.......already better off without those jokers.........id take him even over booty

Yep, that's the way I see it.

I also think Zorn had issues with his development...

colt played poorly this preseason

woodson has a cannon and is prototype size

Colt's not going anywhere, Danny likes him, Zorn likes him, and I like him. He's shown TREMENDOUS upside and even this pre-season had as many great throws as poor ones; he's in his 2nd yr of a 2-3 yr development project, he gets another yr after 09

That just about seals his fate ....
