[buckeyescott11]

I hope he has a great career, except against the Bengals, I hope he's a no show for those games .

But, but ,but... what about my Brownies:)

Waived by the Steelers...

Gibson waived to add McLendon

Most often, a player is waived during the season because he has failed to meet expectations in some way, either on the field or off the field. That was not the case with Thaddeus Gibson

 

[Rookie]

Wow, I did a double take after reading this on twitter. Came here to confirm.

Good luck Thad I'm sure you'll catch on somewhere else.

I can think of a certain team in Cleveland that should probably give him a shot.

 

[Merih]

Well if he met expectations both on and off...then why was he waived?

 

[Buckeneye]

Browns better not fuck this up....

Weren't the reports out of camp overwhelmingly positive for Thad? Not sure what happened between there and now.

?Linebacker is our deepest position,? said Tomlin, ?and (Gibson) is the low man on the totem pole, so we had to make that necessary move. We were thin at defensive line. It?s just one of the casualties of this profession. It?s very much a reality, and that?s why we don?t take what we?re doing here for granted and we acknowledge that it?s precious.?

 

[JBaney45]

Pittsburgh is one of if not the best defense in football. I wouldn't be too worried thad will catch on somewhere

 

[Wells4Heisman]

He'll be picked up by someone else... Pitt has too much depth.

San Fran

Haha, if some posters on this board had any say, the Browns would be entirely comprised of former OSU players who have washed out on another team.

LOL....

Whatever.....this guy is ripe for the pickings.....we could certainly use an OLB. Do it Holmgren....Jesus.

I'm not one of those posters. :p

This is maybe the second time I've said that.

I hope the Bills take him. they worked him out pre draft and he'd walk right onto the field.

Agree completely. That was my first thought as well.
