Allgood to return to the Talons?




One Philadelphia outlet is reporting it:

The Soul pulled the plug on quarterback Justin Allgood yesterday, sending him back to the Tulsa Talons in a three-team deal that netted Philadelphia an offensive lineman and future considerations.


I don't really know what to think. Allgood put up impressive numbers last season with the Talons. But this is Matt Bassuener's team now. As much as we loved Justin, he was inconsistent. He will lack the chemistry Bassuener has created with Troy McBroom and Brandon Copeland. So easily stated, I can't see Allgood starting.

However, it does give the Talons a better backup. We saw how Bobby Reid did at the end of the Chicago game. He could not get the ball off. Took a safety. Not something to inspire confidence in a backup. With Allgood the Talons will have a quality backup.

All in all, it could be good news for Allgood who has been benched in Philadelphia. Now he can return home to his child and girlfriend in Tulsa.
