Colt McCoy is older and still has a backup job. Lots of other crappy QBs bouncing around for years too... If not for the right-wing shitshow, someone would've taken a flyer in the last five years on a QB who once led a team to a superbowl appearance.

We also, if we want to say it's just about results, can look at Dave Chappelle, who falls on the opposite side of the "woke or not-woke" line but remains famously un-canceled despite that. So I could see someone reaching the conclusion of "the lines of 'what you can't say' aren't as strong as they're made out to be on either side, if you can bring in the money" OR the conclusion that it's not a one-sided "wokeism" thing... but "this is purely a woke thing and it's a huge problem" seems unsupportable.
