bold move for Clowney...

He tells NFL teams he's not working out for them anymore. Pretty much what he told Spurrier last year.

Fox just said his decision was based on Thomas' knee injury last week.

Not that surprising to me at least. I'm sure he has already worked out for the top 6 teams. After what happened to Brandon Thomas it was probably wise to shut it down.

any player worth their salt is busing theirass on their own. you can blow a knee out just as easy working out on your own.

They're definitely not on the court, Cotton. Their absence is noticeable

Maybe that's because the Texans told him they were definitely going to select him and/or that there is a trade in place for a team(such as Falcons) that will move up to 1 specifically to pick him-if this is the case then working out for other teams would be a waste of time!

he's nothing but a big puss...seriously, full of excuses

if he knows where he's going then fine...that still doesn't make him any less of a wussy, always hurt/hurtin, taking a break or timing himself out! he was even 'hurt' at the combine!!! LOL!!!
i hope it's the 2nd dumbest move he's ever made & he blows it!!! (1st was picking coots)
his attitude & team/work ethics are EXACTLY what's wrong with sports, especially college football & is one more reason you don't "pay" players & cave in to give them their every wish & want with no discipline or structure. it started with him in or before high school & look how he's grown & matured...
maybe i'm an oldschool hardass or something, but i find it pathetic personally, especially from someone with so much obvious advantage & ability....he only squanders it & uses it when he feels like it, shittylittleprince.

but if not, this would be an unwise move particularly in light of all the quesations/concerns regarding his work ethic (or lack thereof).

It's almost worth placing a bet on him. That int 10 years he will be out of football and broke working at the gas station.

According to an NFL Management Council analysis, the average career length for a player who is on his club’s opening-day roster as a rookie is 6.0 years, so a nine year career would actually be well above average.

That goes to family and the people you hire to handle your money. A good money manager can make a short career last a lifetime financially, and vice versa.
