  4. Ya know it’s funny at this point hearing what certain people say and I must say for someone who loves the game of football and the team aspect of winning it matters. Keep it to yourself I don’t wanna hear that from you if while we trying to win and win a damn Super Bowl you best believe as a GM and owner I wanna know my guys love the game of football. I’m not saying he doesn’t obviously I don’t know Puka and he is a rising superstar in the NFL as we speak and to hear that just gets me confused.

  5. Whi cares he will ir already has enough money to live well ..even if he does plenty of teams would take him for there number one recevier until he turns 30 7 years is all ng carrer ..they can get rid if him if he didn't produce..sorry Colin this is a stupid players whos 30 dont get paid especially receivers

  7. Puka is 23. That means his brain isn't done developing, especially the part that processes judgment and consequences for actions–and statements. When he's 30, he'll be singing a different tune.

  9. Colin should have a still working memory that should tell him that in the 80s as Kareem Abdul-Jabbar continued his career in his mid 30s that articles written about him would get quotes from Magic Johnson saying don’t expect anything like me playing mid 30s that will not happen. My game of penetrating deep into the paint challenging the power forwards and centers is a reckless style that is going to wear on me, but I won’t stop.. i’m not willing to accept me playing when I have physically. Declined noticeably.. anyone who watched Abdul-Jabbar with the Milwaukee Bucks could see it.. magic in multiple instances when talking about Jabbar said I won’t accept very much decline. in my early 30s. I will just hang them up. have you ever heard: Colin give Magic a bad time about something he said on many occasions?

  12. Colin is so unimaginative that he cannot even occur to him that Cooper Kupp getting unceremoniously dropped kicked on the wrong side of 30 is something Puka has learned from.

  13. He’s right you don’t think the rams are thinking are moving off him now when he gets close to 30, not based on performance but because they know he’s wanting to be out the door. Cooper Kupp was moved at 31 so you don’t think they would draft a wide receiver at 28 and move off him next year. Not to mention contract extensions and less guaranteed assurances on the back end of your contracts because of what you just said. The right answer is just to say I’m playing until my body doesn’t let me play anymore and hopefully end my career with the rams end of story.

  15. What I find most alarming is that he can’t do simple math. He’s in year 3… and 23 years old…. Wants to retire by the time he’s 30 and he thinks that’s 7 or 8 years in the league

  22. It doesn’t hurt Puka in any way that he cannot avoid the consequences of the preventative actions any team can take against him, because someone will sign him and pay him, so it hurts a hypothetical scenario, not the reality of how grateful and content a player is with the money they have made to that point despite of what they “lost”.

  31. He should have just left the door open…… like I plan on retiring in my thirties Maybe 🤔 30 but who knows… lol he needs people to help him speak if he had someone who cared about him they would of put him on game on the spot….

  38. Man… That's soft as Charmin. Ronnie Lott once cut off the tip of his finger rather than miss a game. It wasn't even a playoff game. That IS insane. Not saying I'm that tough, nor are 99% of human beings. But there are plenty of ppl in physically demanding jobs, not just athletes. I've never heard another NFL player at his age say I want to retire by 30 so I don't get hurt and need surgery. Maybe find a safer line of work then princess. I hear Barber colleges are still around. If I was a DB I'd nail him a few times early in the game to see if I could make him make a business decision and tap out. Sheesh 🙄
