Stinger226 Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 He probably has to do a physical yet , its probably not valid until that's done. Whether he passes or not , someone had to go. I remember when Calahan left for Denver , he didn't play last year. Hard to ignore injury history on players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I'm thinking the same thing...wait for the physical. Then why would the Colts even jump on signing him right before the draft if they were so concerned about that? Or they simply don't care as nothing or very little is guaranteed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand OTOH if you are in Burton's spot wouldn't you prefer to wait a bit before signing for your best chance of passing a physical? It's a weak TE class this year no reason to think if he's returning to form that Burton wouldn't find work after the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
