I wonder why?
OXNARD, Calif. – Cowboys quarterback Quincy Carter has been released, sources confirmed today.
The Cowboys went 10-6 with Carter starting and got back in the playoffs in Bill Parcells' first year in Dallas. Carter started all 16 games last season and came to camp expecting to be the starter again.
The other quarterbacks in camp are 40-year-old Vinny Testaverde, rookie Drew Henson and unproven second-year player Tony Romo.
In a recent interview with The Dallas Morning News, Carter talked about the pressure of playing quarterback in Dallas.
"I think I understand the pressures of being the Dallas Cowboys' quarterback and trying to meet the expectations," Carter said. "At the end of the day, I have to be Quincy. I can't be Roger Staubach. I can't be Troy Aikman. I can't be Don Meredith, whose number I wear. I can only be me."
Carter, 16-15 as a starter, passed for 3,305 yards with 17 touchdowns and 21 interceptions last season as the Cowboys advanced to the playoffs for the first time since 1999. But he passed for 154 yards and an interception in the playoff loss to Carolina.
"This is a tough city to play for, and they'll love you when you're winning," he said. "But you have to earn it. I got a small taste of that last year, and I want some more."
if Q can get off that crack (cuz we all know if it was jus weed they would say he tested positive for marijauna) i think he could go to San Fransisco and compete for the starting job since Tim Rattay is hurt, even though they are saying he is gonna be healthy, i can tell from experience a groin pull is a naggin injury, and this guy had a tear.
WHeres Carson Palmer when ou need him :cry:
