Glazer Boys Offered Derrick Brooks A Job
March 26th, 2009Since the Bucs cut linebacker legend Derrick Brooks, Joe has beat the drum that Bucs general manager Mark Dominik made a terrible mistake, should swallow his pride and re-sign Brooks.
Joe has learned through multiple sources today that very well may happen.
Problem is, Brooks won’t be donning a Bucs uniform.
Through Joe’s sources, one of which is a highly placed academic source at Florida State where Brooks serves on the board of trustees of his alma mater, it has been revealed that shortly after the Bucs cut Brooks the Glazer Boys called Brooks in for a private meeting and offered him a front office position.
The specific position that was offered to Brooks is unclear, but a job offer was made to Brooks. One source was inclined to believe the offer was partially motivated by damage control. Rather than take the offer, Brooks informed the Glazer Boys he wanted to exhaust all options as a player before he announced his retirement and became a Bucs employee.
