This thread is for some of the less remarkable (say, as compared to Favre's or Vick's situations), but still notable of the NFL's homeless... We'll kick it off with two,... one from a LOCAL source, the other from the NFL's "official" source,... both from "The REAL Feed":
Rehabbing RB McAllister: 'I want to play a couple more years
NFL.com (15.05.2009 21:36)
Thirty-year-old power runner Deuce McAllister doesn't want to be the embittered player living in denial about the effects of age and injuries on his game. He does, however, still want to win a Super Bowl -- as a player.
AGENT: 2 TEAMS TARGETING PLAX
NY Post: Giants (16.05.2009 07:20)

Plaxico needs to settle the charges against him so he can start playing sooner. He would be smart to settle sooner rather than later because you know Goodell is going to suspend him a few games if not the entire year depending on what he pleas too. But if he is not signed and has not settled the case, then his suspension will just linger on and on.....

Report: DA wants two years of jail for Burress
SI.com: NFL (27.07.2009 07:32)
NEW YORK (AP) -- Manhattan's district attorney says he wants Giants wide receiver Plaxico Burress to serve time in prison, the New York Post reported. |

This is a really interesting situation to watch. IF this goes to trial, the trial will probably not be until AFTER the season. So essentially, Plaxico has the opportunity to play 1 season before going away for 2 seasons in jail. However, what the commissioner does in regards to suspending him also will come into effect.
The commish needs to make a decision quick as teams are not willing to give Plax a shot not know what type of suspension will occur. If the commish decides NOT to suspend Plax until after the trial, then Plaxico is TRULY a 1-year hired gun.
Rumor has it the commish and Plax are meeting this week. Being someone that has Plax in a keeper league.... I have my fingers crossed!!!
