Probably our starter next year with the money they gave him as Kittle will be out for most if not all trying a comeback.

Words can't express how awful of a signing this was. This will go down as one the worst in the ShanaLynch era. I rarely accuse players of dogging it out there, but this dude is going through the motions with no urgency in the playoffs.

I think he apologized for almost getting in the seattle defenders way for that interception.

Is this guy even rated highly as a blocker since being signed by us?
I dont see how he is even worth a roster spot.

Hell, I'd rather have Sauebert.

Big time disappointing FA signing.
It sucks that Kittle got hurt but the silver lining is hopefully this team will finally find a quality TE2 that could fill the void well until Kittle returns & then be a consistent weapon in both the running & passing game in working in with Kittle. That's my hope/vision anyway.

The issue with Farrell was that he was signed as a blocking TE and he couldn't even do that right.
He wasn't signed to catch passes.

Well, he did neither well. He was "just a guy" bare minimum this season whenever he got playing time.

Just a total waste.
one of the worst signing in years
Can't block, and very stiff ... looks like Lurch running routes
