or demoted for stuff like — "Well, he just didn't do what he needed to do in the Covid-offseason — so we went w a different QB."

Like I said, the fact he came out w his struggles to the public is a good sign for him, personally. But it's probably NOT a good sign for his future as a QB for them. Right now his depression explanation amounts to honesty — but it also stands in the present as an excuse for his current failing as a leader & QB. Admission is only the first step (in an often long & difficult) battle for recovery.

I'd think if he were really serious about turning things around, his admissions would've been to a much smaller circle of people.
