Vikings release veteran McNabb. Where next for McNabb???

[madinmaryland]

The Minnesota Vikings waived the 13-year veteran quarterback on Thursday, giving him the opportunity to sign with another team for the stretch run in a parting coach Leslie Frazier described as mutual.

Frazier pushed for the Vikings to trade a sixth-round draft pick this summer to the Washington Redskins in exchange for McNabb. He wanted stability he believed McNabb would bring to the offense after the NFL lockout kept rookie Christian Ponder from practicing with the team or working with his coaches until training camp.

Frazier and McNabb met in 1999, when the defensive backs coach and the first-round draft pick spent their first year with the Philadelphia Eagles. Friendly to the end, Frazier wished McNabb well and said part of the reason for the move was for the player's sake.

"This was the best decision for both parties," Frazier said. "He was a great player and has been a great player for our league for a long, long time. Have a lot of affection and love for Donovan."

4. I wanted the 49ers to get McNabb this year

Can't start, but he'd be a viable back-up.

5. I've been reading he showed up at the Vikes out of shape...

and it got worse from there...he's notorious for it and it seems like he doesn't give a s**t anymore.

7. It's another story then if he's given up

6. I know some Colts fans who want him

One cited the potential for his mother feeding injured Colts Campbell's Chunky Chicken Soup to help them recover, so you can see the level of analysis at work here...
