A Mike Florio guest post (not really)

PrintOur sources (which are so shakey that we will not name them for fear of the story losing all credibility) tell us that Quinn Pitcock is flying to Indy today.
The Colts have yet to announce a signing to fill the roster spot cleared for John McCargo. Could Quinn Pitcock have had a change of heart and come back to play football for the Colts? (probably not, but that's never stopped us before).
A third-round draft pick in 2007 out of Ohio State, Pitcock was known in college as a relentless worker and team leader, but for whatever reason, he never seemed to want to play pro football. Last year he took his time before finally signing his rookie contract, apparently because he was ambivalent about playing in the NFL at all.
(Jump for how tenuous the source actually is)
New Era Scouting's Luke Paul Chandler told me that Quinn Pitcock's facebook page says he's flying into Indy.
That's it. Don't expect this to happen.

Let the rumor mill begin!
But IF this is true…he’s had no preseason and no season. He definitely knows the system…how long would it be before he could start? Just a guesstimate…theoretically speaking, of course.

AND
IF McWhatsHisName is practicing in Buffalo after failing the physical in Indy…..
COULD it be that the Colts reached some sort of agreement with Pitcock yesterday??? THEN they found a minor disk problem to nullify the deal.
I really should just stop. I find this drama rather intriguing though….

bad disc
Is nothing to mess with.. .It might resolve quickly or never get worse, or it might go bad quickly.
You want to pay a guy and give up a draft pick for a player you might have to IR next week if this gets worse?
Either way, the ‘lack of consistency’ might be a symptom of the problem already..
Do you think our management wanted to take that chance right now?
An expert is someone who knows more and more about less and less until they know everything about nothing...
I found him, but I'm not a friend so I can't see his page....but
Luke the guy who gave the tip to Shake IS listed as one of Quinn’s friends so it at least has the pretense of being true. However, the biggest reach is whether he’s coming to Indy to see the Colts or just coming to Indy to hook up…
He accepted my friend request
Here is his status: “Quinn Pitcock on my flight from AZ to IN. on Thursday”
He doesn’t have much information on his page, but it does say that his current city for his contact information is Indy.
Still an empty spot on the roster

According to the star....
The Colts are activating Hagler from the PUP list to fill the open roster spot. I can’t imagine that with Pitcock being “retired” he stayed in all that great of shape while he was out. He is a 300lb man….So even if he does come back which seems a little far fetched to me, I doubt that he will provide a significant contribution with his physical shape and questionable dedication
it's just wild "connect probably unrelated things" Florio type specualtion
I almost didn’t send it to DZ and BBS and I was never going to post it as serious news without more confirmation.

The rumor
Again, it is a rumor. Is it likely? No. Daniel Muir is our NT now, and God help us if he sucks.
