ET80 Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Mallett, the former Arkansas Razorback was drafted by the New England Patriots in the 3rd round of the 2011 NFL draft. Mallett was traded to the Houston Texans in 2014, making two starts and looking like a potential starting QB in the process. The following year he lost his starting job to Brian Hoyer and was eventually cut by the Texans, signing with the Baltimore Ravens shortly after. Mallett was 35 years old.

Texansfan713 Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Man that is terrible news. I remember having hopes he would be the Texans QB of the future when we traded for him. He had all the tools. Sucks he didn't pan out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TecmoSuperJoe Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 (edited) Horrible for Mallet's loved ones. Apparently 10 people have drowned this month alone on the Florida Panhandle/Gulf shore of Alabama due to rip currents. Gotta be careful if you're gonna go out there. I'm not the greatest swimmer, so I would only swim indoors. Stories of people getting caught up in rip currents or drowning in an eddy seem terrifying.

Blackstar12 Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 RIP that’s so young. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKillerNacho Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Horrifically sad. At one point before his final year in college he was considered a top prospect; I remember a handful of dolphins fans were hoping we'd be able to draft him. Ugh. Far far far too young... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wackywabbit Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Dang that's sad to hear. Seemed like he was always made out to be a heel during his career for whatever seems like nonsense in hindsight. I can still remember him having some on-field glory as a Ravens' backup and can still picture him smiling in a post game interview following him coming in and playing really well in a game when the Ravens upset the Steelers when they had a terrible team that year (2015).

I briefly got caught in a rip current years ago. I refuse to get more than waist deep in the open ocean now. Even being a semi strong swimmer, it was scary. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evidently there were red flags flying warning folks not to swim there. How sad... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
