I'm fine with whatever way they want to go. Zappe has been playing games with trying to be Mahomes with stupid arm angles and shit all summer, so while he was a serviceable backup and I absolutely wanted him over Hoyer last year, he's regressed hard and broke his mechanics on a guy that had a low ceiling regardless.

I just really wasn't expecting it at all. He was never competitive with Mac despite all the noise around here, but as bad as he was they saw what worse looks like, too, and it's not exactly a position that's deep around the league. I liked the idea of keeping Cunningham around and seeing if he can clean up mechanics and compete for the backup job next year, but he's not ready to be even the backup plan for the backup spot at this point. They have to be bringing someone in and the options are never all that interesting.

Obviously making space for Tom to back up Jones.
