paulitik Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 I don't like this. Maybe if it's Levitre, but stil not thrilled about to. Vaughn McClureESPN Staff Writer Falcons veteran right guard Jon Asamoah, who lost his starting job to Chris Chester, was not on the field or in uniform for Thursday's night final preseason game against Baltimore. When reached by phone Thursday night, Asamoah said, "Man, I can't even talk about it right now." The Falcons did not announce a roster move and could be trying to trade Asamoah.ShareNFL 4m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAD597 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 That is pretty lame of the front office, I don't care if he does not fit ZBS he was good in pass protection. We need all the help we can get on the OL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tribal Chief Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Everyone who I have read and heard discuss him thought the same thing a lot of us thought,that he and chesterfield would be the starting guards. I don't know what he did to pass off the new staff but by the looks of it I see no reason why he isn't starting.Oh well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xiv_T_E_C_O_ Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Messed up, but its part of the biz. I wish they would have done it sooner though, if you know a guy doesn't fit don't stretch it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xiv_T_E_C_O_ Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 They got to figure something out. If this is not deception, which it doesn't seem like it is, and your not giving said player good reps, then part ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanfranfalcon Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 i just never understood why the h3ll he didn't get on the field with Chester, Matthews, Schrader, and Stone/Hawley??!! no way he downgrades the 1st unit that much no matter what they think or think they see...

Atlfanstckndenver Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 The problem with trading for levitre would be taking on his contract. There would have to be a handshake deal where he would sign a new deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
