Worley obviously lacks self-awareness, even for a 23 year old.

He lost playing time last year bc he was obviously underperforming and was oblivious to it. And to make matters worse, he openly fueded with the coaching staff who was trying to make him better.

In turn, Panthers basically gave him away in spite of his age and the draft investment.

The Eagles picked him up with a lot of secondary depth as a low risk investment. The Panthers got a decent receiver for what turned out to be below market value for a WR. Good trade for both teams.

So in addition to being a model citizen, Worley was going to have to play well to just make the team let alone see the field.

It was like in his mind he thought he was going "home" as a conquering hero and guaranteed a starring role when he was already considered damaged goods and completely expendable by the team that drafted and then traded him away and viewed as nothing but bottom of the roster depth who would have to fight not only playing time but even for a roster spot period.

Worley may get another chance due to his age and potential, but this year is almost assuredly shot as the Eagles will release him and he will be getting a suspension.

He has cost himself any chance of getting a lucrative long-term contract probably ever and he will have to fight to even make a roster going forward.

There is a good chance he doesn't play at all this year unless a team has injuries and needs to sign him to a minimum non-guaranteed contract during the season.

He will likely get a shot as a training camp body next season but that's it.

Tough fall for a 23 year old. Life comes at you fast, and will eventually teach you some self-awareness whether you're ready for it or not.

Normally I would say let's bring him back because we will make the eagles look stupid but no way in hell would I want Worley back . Possibly one of the worst corners I ever seen  in a panther uniform other then Antoine Cason 

You haven't been a fan for long then. Worley wasn't bad as it generally takes 4 years to really adjust as a corner.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc.

      Crazy stat

      The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
