Vikings will cut TE John Carlson, per source. Sides had been talking about a restructure but couldn't reach an agreement.

We can bring this guy back at the right price. He is definitely better than Kellen Davis.

Jacksonville might pick him up though.

#AzCardinals sign TE John Carlson to a two-year contract.

Hasn't he had a bunch of injuries the last couple of seasons.

Jville · Mar 4, 2014

He would be wise to consider retiring because of constant concussions.

volsunghawk · Mar 4, 2014

Loved his first season, but he's a serious health risk now. Dude needs to retire.

onanygivensunday · Mar 4, 2014

Too soft as well.

Retire, John.

Evil_Shenanigans · Mar 4, 2014

Just no!

Sports Hernia · Mar 4, 2014

Nothing against the guy, but he is one concussion away from retirement.

SouthSoundHawk · Mar 4, 2014

This dude could put his helmet on and go down with a concussion.

He should retire.

MizzouHawkGal · Mar 4, 2014

Just retire before your brain is mush John.

Basis4day · Mar 5, 2014

Not sure if it's been mentioned. IIRC he has quite a few concussions.

Msfann · Mar 5, 2014

Didn't he talk come crap about the Seahawks not long ago? I'm not finding it online though so maybe not.

Arziona Cardinals gave former Vikings TE John Carlson a two-year deal.

SouthSoundHawk · Mar 7, 2014

I think we may actually see Kam kill someone on the field, if he can even make it on the field.

Off-topic. It's funny that the NFL puts so much emphasis on safety and concussions...then this guy comes out saying he's had too many and that he thinks he should retire, but he continues to play. Why wouldn't they step in and say something to him along the lines of "We're sick of getting sued because of crap like this, you're done son." If he takes one questionable hit and goes down, that defender better have his checkbook out.

onanygivensunday · Mar 7, 2014

Didn't realize that ARIZ was that desperate for a TE.

Wow.

Missing_Clink · Mar 7, 2014

Wow, a guy with concussion problems signs up to play in the NFC West? Bad move...

Coug_Hawk08 · Mar 7, 2014

I am really surprised he got that much. No wonder he signed so fast. Would have expected to see near league minimum for him. Never lived up to potential, ever. Below average player with tough concussion history.

QuahHawk · Mar 7, 2014

Good pick up for them as long as he sis our when playing the Seahawks.

Jville · Mar 7, 2014

Carlson just couldn't pass up cashing in on the tight end shortage.

Then the NFL will get sued by players and the NFLPA for inhibiting their careers, hating on certain individuals, hell maybe harassment; look, this black guy got suspended but this white guy didn't with the same number of concussions!

No way this happens.

Can't wait to see Kam lay him out. I haven't forgotten he was talking crap about the Hawks awhile back.
