    A deal was IN PLACE last year, but the league wouldn't allow him to sign... there would be no reason for the Commissioner to release a statement such as this - including conditions JM has to meet if he wasn't ready to sign on the dotted line.

    I'm from Hamilton so I mean I'm a bit interested. Seems like it could be fun.

    He could do pretty well up there, if he takes it seriously. He is a spread concept QB and from what I know of Canadian football that should work with his skills. However, if there are nightclubs and cocaine anywhere near Hamilton there is always going to be a pretty decent chance that Johnny Party shows up instead of Johnny Football.

    He demanded the Ti-Cats offer him a contract last year as is his right in the CFL since the Cats have his negotiating rights. The Cats didn't have to since the CFL blocked him from entering the league. Whether either party wants anything to do with the other remains to be seen.

    Yeah, looks like they have another week or so to sign him or trade his rights, and then he becomes a UFA. I feel like this is one reclaimation project that won't work out, unless he goes to Saskatchewan, and that's only because I assume they don't have bars there. I don't know. I've never been to Saskatchewan or met anyone who has, so my assumption is that it's a giant cornfield in the middle of the country! (Apologies to any Saskatchewans who this may have offended)

    Hamilton has received interest on trading his rights.

    Honestly I'd be happy to trade his rights to another team. He might be a good player but he'll never justify the hype.
