NEW YORK (AP) — Kurt Warner hears about Matt Hasselbeck joining the Titans and Donovan McNabb possibly going to the Vikings and sees a direct link to the NFL lockout.
The retired two-time MVP knows a thing or two about being a veteran quarterback mentoring a rookie. He initially thought first-round draft picks Jake Locker in Tennessee and Christian Ponder in Minnesota had a chance to be productive this season.
Not anymore, after the league’s labor strife wiped out teams’ offseason programs. So Warner isn’t surprised to see their clubs pursuing veteran QBs.
But former Indianapolis Colts coach Tony Dungy isn’t sure experienced quarterbacks will be able to make a quick adjustment to new systems, either.
