'16 CA QB Ian Book (Notre Dame Signed NLI)

[NDWarrior]

Was released by Patriots in September and just signed on as part of The Chiefs offseason team The Chiefs have added an extra quarterback for the coming offseason.

Keep getting those checks Mr. Book.

Keep getting those checks Mr. Book.

Those checks aren't much in the offseason. Or even during summer camp. But if you make the team, which he probably won't, they go WAY up. Even the practice squad in season is way more than the off season work out money.

 

[dublinirish]

$2,170,584 career earnings in 3 years but yeah he made $12k for his stint with the Pats practice squad lol

Impressive, 9 pieces

 

[Huntr]

Let's be honest, they were small pieces.

He's more of a pie manager.

 

[greyhammer90]

Still getting paid

 

[ulukinatme]

Still getting paid

And getting rings!
[EDIT] My bad, he was picked up before the SB as a reserve, no ring yet.

 

[Huntr]

Scarfing down pizza apparently not enough to earn a spot.

 

[ulukinatme]

Unless he's picked up by another team, he ends up tieing with Kizer for the longest NFL career for a BK QB. We're overdue for some NFL success at this position.

 

[CANONIZEFATHERSORIN]

Crazy that ian book is our most successful qb in the last 15 years. I take back every mean thing i said about him as a starter

 

[pumpdog20]

some teams just don't value good winning QB play

[irishff1014]

Of all the teams Ian. Ugh. Make yourself some money while you can.

 

[Old Man Mike]

If Ian could become number two there, that is the ideal gig for an admittedly "competent game filler if needed". You can rest on the bench, be really smart and helpful, and get a bunch of years in at good pay.

Kinda funny he was on the Eagles team the last time they played the Chiefs in the SB, didn't win, he was on the practice team for the Chiefs last year so I don't think he technically got a ring there either, but he should get a Super Bowl ring now.

 

[Old Man Mike]

Deserved good warrior and don't anyone tell you otherwise. Many cheers.

He was their source of intel on the QB position. lol Thats how they made Mahomes look like a fool last night.

Do practice squad players get rings?

 

[IrishLax]

Do practice squad players get rings?

Yes, believe it or not it’s included in the Collective Bargaining Agreement!

 

[texbender]

Does he get a "share" of the winning team proceeds?

 

[Bluto]

First ND QB to get a ring since Montana?

Another data point that Book is a ND Legend.

 

[Plankton]

First ND QB to get a ring since Montana?

Steve Beuerlein got one with the Cowboys in 1992.

Ahh, so I was wrong! He would have gotten a ring last year with the Chiefs I believe, and now one with the Eagles.

 

[Irish#1]

Absolutely no one had Book winning a SB ring on their bingo card.

 

[ulukinatme]

Gillis is everywhere!

 

[CANONIZEFATHERSORIN]

Wait was Ian not even the second stringer?
