David Garrard to be released?

[Steelersfan]

Jay Glazer of FOX Sports reports the Jagaurs are set to release starting QB David Garrard.
Luke McCown, not rookie Blaine Gabbert, will start the opener against the Titans. The move calls to mind coach Jack Del Rio's last-minute decision to part ways with Byron Leftwich in favor of Garrard just prior to the 2007 season. Due $8.075 million this year, Garrard wasn't financially viable in the "bridge quarterback" role for a team with little hope of contending. Garrard will have little time to learn the offense in his next destination, but he does make sense for a team like Seattle. QBs coach Carl Smith was Garrard's offensive coordinator from 2005-06.

Bets on what week Gabbert will be starting by? Is 4 too early?

RIP jags skill players.

[Madtoker]

Do you think another team will sign him?

[Kaz]

Seahawks should have him on speed dial.

[MilwaukeesBest]

Perhaps WASH as well.

Either Seattle or Washington ...it would definitely be an improvement, at least for this season!

Pretty rude for them to release him now, why not release him earlier so he can actually camp with another team? Doesn't sound like a good franchise in JAX Luckily they don't really have any fans anyway

In addition, they may not be a franchise in Jacksonville for long..went to a game there and the stadium is beat and the crowd is boooorrriiinnnggg! If they build a stadium in Los Angelos...big 'If' ...they would be most likely to relocate!

His agent said he was contacted by three teams right after Garrard's release. I would guess Seattle, San Francisco, and Washington.
