49'ers cut Jalen Hurd

49ers cut Jalen Hurd, 2019 third-round pick who never played a game

 

[Sea Ray]

Hard to believe he's lasted this long having never gotten on the field. He should have stayed here and in the backfield where he was poised to set records

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

At least they didn't cut him during the middle of a game

Jalen who?

 

[utvols74]

If he's healthy (ever) someone will pick him up - for cheap. Maybe a season or two left in him - again, if he's healthy and stays healthy.

He should’ve been open to playing tight end here. That would his best spot. But he really is a product of getting so much attention early that it impacted his attitude and thus career.

No, he made the right decision. He was very overrated as an RB. Better as a WR.

Even getting cut, he's made a cool $3+ mil, and that's better than you and I the past 3 years.

The best way, only had to practice.

There were signs early in HS at MBA of attitude problems. That’s one reason he ended up at Beech

 

[Buddr]

He played in one pre season game and then spent the rest of his career (cough cough) on the IR.

I’ve been watching and rooting for CP all year thinking Hurd should be playing a similar hybrid position, kid has too much talent to do nothing.

 

[sjt18]

Maybe the biggest victim of Jones' incompetent management of players and leadership.

What could he have done in THIS O.....?

That might have been his best fit but he's not remotely the athlete CP is, though that's a really high bar.

 

[CAVPUT]

While I can understand him cutting and moving from butchie, he's not a Vol IMO. Good luck to him, but I won't claim him as ours.

I wonder if he ever got over his lower body injury here at UT...

He can always tell his grandkids that Kamara was second string to him.

That's the problem. He's stayed injured. You do 2 stints on the IR as a non-starter and it's over

I don’t think he’s all that talented

Victim? Of what? He was given the starting role over Kamara and had a mediocre career at best.

 

[K-town Vol Fan]

I don’t think he’s all that talented

If he had stayed here for 4 years at RB he would probably hold every major RB record at UT.

 

[Sarms58]

Maybe the biggest victim of Jones' incompetent management of players and leadership.

What could he have done in THIS O.....?

He was born to run out of a power I formation…the second coming of Eddie George. But Butch had him running East west looking for those cutback seams while Kamara - who was made for that style O - was second string.

 

[MyVolsDropped]

Lol. You Hurd it here folks!

Sucks to suck.

Karma is actually spelled K A M A R A

 

[Sarms58]

If he had stayed here for 4 years at RB he would probably hold every major RB record at UT.

Yea, he’s sixth all time rushing in two and a half seasons…only 440 yards behind #1. If he had just finished 2016 he would be the all time leader.

 

[GreyWolf1129]

Footnote to a bad chapter in the history of UT Football. Why do we dwell on it?

Go Vols.

I just wanna say, Beech girls are easy.
