| 26th July, 2007 - 2:49 pm |  St. Petersburg Times - The word is that the Bucs encouraged Daunte Culpepper to make a decision by the time the team reports to training camp Thursday at Disney's Wide World of Sports.
Culpepper's options appear to be dwindling and he doesn't have time to take the free agent tour. Falcons coach Bobby Petrino said his team has no interest in the Dolphins' free agent despite the indictment of Michael Vick. That could be a strange situation for the Falcons, anyway, since starter Joey Harrington backed up Culpepper in Miami last year.
The biggest surprise might be the sound of the door shutting in Jacksonville. Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio said on his radio show Tuesday that Culpepper would not be joining them.
"We said we'd investigate it and we have,'' Del Rio said. "My gut is it's not going to be a fit for us and for him.
"I think it's all about a player and a team finding common ground. I'm just telling you that at this point he has other suitors out there and we feel good about our quarterback situation with Byron Leftwich as our starter and David Garrard as our backup.'' [READ] |
