Answer 1

I always find that players seemed to disappear a lot sort of like Shawn Alexandra who hasn't been that good lately, i don't know what happened to Chad Jackson of the Patriots, As for Dillon, Martin, Barber and Troy Brown they all retired. I also wonder where Donte Culppper has been he use to be a really good QB, Priest Holmes had too many injures, Jake plummer must be a back up somewhere i have no clue. I guess alot of players seem to retire with out big notice

Answer 2

TJ Duckett got cut by the Seahawks this preseason in August and is a free agent.

Rudi Johnson was cut by the Lions in the preseason and is a free agent.

Tiki Barber is doing some sports broadcasting and writing.

Deshaun Foster is also a free agent

Travis Henry is in jail on cocaine trafficking charges.

Aaron Brooks retired in 2007 and became a real estate developer

Michael Pittman is currently playing in the UFL in Florida

As for Emmitt Smith, I'm curious as well, I know that he had also gotten into the real estate development business, but not entirely sure currently. I could only assume after not being resigned by ESPN, that he went back to focusing on that business.

Answer 3

All of them retired.



These are Hall of Famers:

Curtis Martin

Zach Thomas

Emmitt Smith

Shannon Sharpe

John Lynch



Troy Vincent might make the All decade team.

Answer 4

If the number of the card never went through or had ANY type of confirmation, he is probably not going to be sent to jail. If ANY type of information went through, it will probably get billed to the owner of the card, but he also might be charged for fraud or attempting to steal someone's identity. I doubt that would happen, but I wouldn't risk anymore attempts of trying to buy something with that card number or trying a different number, unless of course it was his own. I hope this helps... :D <3

Answer 5

I can't answer all of them, but alot of them retired or weren't resigned and were forced into retirement. Some of them are in the UFL. You would be suprised at how many recognizeable names show up when watching a UFL game. Some of them retired a while ago. Emmitt Smith? He retired years ago. Jesse Palmer is a football analyst on ESPN. Some of them still play, but have minor roles and rarely show up.

Answer 6

Travis Henry is in Federal prison for 20-30 years for selling 50lbs of cocaine to an undercover agent. The rest of the players are !) in jail or 2)out of football.

Answer 7

were u cryogenically frozen? they are all retired. I think Darrell Jackson played last year for SF. Travis Henry last year with Den. Deshaun Foster last year with SF. Zach Thomas last year with Dal. John Lynch last year with Denver. I don't think any played this year. Hambrick, Fiedler, F. Mitchell and Warrick were not solid. David Terrell not decent and Tommy Maddox definitely not very good.

Answer 8

Most of these guys have been gone for at least a couple seasons...



Last I heard Kordell Stewart was a butt plugg salesman.

Answer 9

IMHO

troy hambrick: hmmmmmm

david terrell: WAS a decent WR @ Michigan

mike vanderjagt: lookup idiot kicker

tj duckett: bruised running back ... see Lions

rudi johnson: old victim of theft ... see Lions

corey dillon: Went the Vikings and Patriots route, gateway out of NFL

curtis martin: ditto

tiki barber: quit then team won Superbowl, now pretends to announce on nfl network

tommy maddox: part of a good Steeler system

jake plummer: part of 7 qb lineup at TB, TB still has qb problems

deshaun foster: still kicking butt

zack crockett: gone

The following group is either announcing, dead, in jail, on drugsin the HOF, telling Al Bundy stories at the bar, admiring their brothers, married or divorced from Playboy models, playing or played for the Lions or selling insurance or used cars:



domanick davis, keenan mccardell, shawn bryson, quincy carter, derrick blalock, dante hall, john lynch, martin gramatica, michael pittman, ashley lelie, shannon sharpe, tim couch, anthony wright, rick mirer, doug gabriel, darren woodson, tim hasselbeck, richie anderson, mike minter, emmitt smith, jeff blake, najeh davenport, robert ferguson, jesse palmer, matt bryant, sam madison, todd pinkston, priest holmes

Answer 10

What are you talking about? Aaron Brooks and Kordell Stewart both sucked at quarterback.

Answer 11

Swine Flu

Answer 12

They've either been cut or retired.



You give those guys way too much credit.

Answer 13

Kordell Stewart is working for the UFL as of now.



Travis Henry is in jail I believe.



Tiki Barber is working for one of the major TV networks.

Answer 14

Old Older Oldest all garbage because they got old or injured. Although Ontario Smith really was a beast but he failed too many drug tests

Aaron Brooks is in the UFL but do you really think he was a "really good qb". He's hated here in new orleans.
