“Deshaun’s an incredible player with a really bright future. I feel like I could help him after my experiences with Washington and Cleveland. I feel like I could help the team. I know a lot of their guys. I think I can do a lot of things they’ve been doing offensively.”
Depsite the fact that the Houston Texans has been throwing around Colin Kaepernick as their new addition, RG3 wants to be an option.
He states:
“A quarterback goes down, and he’s the first one mentioned? I sure don’t take that personally. Heck, I’m cheerleading for Kap, too, because of the stance he took and what he’s representing. I understand why it’s a hot-button issue. I think he’s become a martyr for social injustice and some of the things going on in this country and around the world.”
The 2011 Heisman winner and Baylor alumi says that he’s been training in Houston hoping for an NFL comeback.
“Texas is home, and I’ve always got a soft spot in my heart for Texas. I’m training and making sure I stay sharp. I’m not only staying in shape, but I’m working to get better in the film room, too. … When my number’s called, I’ll be ready.”
