#Here’s your new year’s resolution, #Jimmy.
#You have to decide whether you want to be a football player. #Because here’s what I see:
I see a quarterback who gets hurt too much, whatever the excuses are. #You can’t defend yourself any longer on the field. #And perhaps most importantly, when you throw a pick or turn the ball over, you kind of just walk off the field and shrug like, “#Gee, that didn’t work out.”
I know #Nick #Mullens cares. #When he throws a pick or fumbles, you can see he wants to explode. I want to tell you, #Jimmy, your facial expressions and your body language make it seem almost as if you don’t care.
#Do you care?
#Financially, you’re set for life. #Do you want to pay the price of being in the NFL? #Do you have the temperament to be a quarterback? #Do you want to be a football player?
#George #Kittle wants to be a football player. #That’s why the 49ers can’t keep him off the field. #He insisted to return and play out the final two games of a lost season because that’s what he does. #He plays football.
#And the 49ers didn’t try to keep #Kittle off the field. They’re happy for him to play. #When a reporter asked #Kyle #Shanahan recently why he’s letting #Kittle return and risk serious injury, #Shanahan said, “#That’s what these guys do and if they’re healthy enough to do it, that’s what you do on our team.”
#Is that what you do, #Jimmy?
I haven’t seen you fight to come back since you suffered a high-ankle sprain on #Nov. 1. I’ve seen you sit in a suite and take notes during games, but I haven’t seen you play. #Did you shut yourself down?
#Do you want to retire like #Andrew #Luck did?
#Your new year’s resolution is to go deep into your soul and answer those questions.
