Jarryd Hayne buggers off from NFL

[Gronk]

So can he chip n chase or pass to a man on the inside ?

49er fans seem to really love him ...

Holy f**k! That was impressive. He made that first guy whiff hord.

Wow, I am completely sold on this dude. He's amazing with the ball in his hands! Needs to be the KR/PR when this season starts.

That's it, I was wrong, Hayne is good enough to be PR and on the 53 man roster, and beauty is we only are paying him league minimum for 3 years.

Loving this dude. Thank you, Australia.

Hayne just has that "it" factor that's rare in NFL returners.
I just can't see him not making the roster as a PR/KR guy now.

If this man isn't our primary KR/PR to start the season it's because he's injured.

Wow wow.. f**kin s**t as amazing by Hayne for best at Punter Return!! Keep him our roster please!!!

don't be silly - merkins are too old to play for parramatta if they are over 32

The real issue is that when Hayne comes back at 32, Beau Scott will be 36, and Watmough 37. How are we going to win a title with backrowers aged 36 and 37????

Every time you watch Jarryd Hayne, remember that he played his first snap of competitive football a week ago. Just amazing.

 

[T.S Quint]

He's really showing his value to the team.

I think Tomsula wants him on the team, so he is giving him every chance possible.

That's my thoughts anyways.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

A few tweets I have seen are surprised at Hayne's "toughness", coming from league that was never going to be an issue.

derrrr - he's gonna be too big for his knees when he comes back - he WILL BE our 32 year old backrower ffs

Hayne is impressing a lot of people - I wonder if these guys can do a re-take of this one.

They could sneakily re-title it from 'will Jarryd make it' to 'Jarryd will make it' :sarcasm:

 

[hineyrulz]

This is the bloke Hollywood Jesus says is "overrated" right?

Just imagine what Burty would of done to the merkins is he had of went over???


Hayne is just a freak, so proud that he played for my club.

 

[T.S Quint]

Niners win the game 23-6.

Jarryd is all the commentators can talk about.
He was the first player interviewed on the field after the game. So funny watching him in interviews over there.

[Gronk]

So if he makes the 53 man squad does that mean he's on shit money cos he signed a $150k rookie contract for 3 years ?

 

[oldmancraigy]

Yes Gronk.

He is on minimum contract (I think that is something like $400k?), and he's stuck with it (he is on a 'practice' contract at the moment I think? If he makes the squad he jumps to minimum salary). They are in no way obliged to upgrade him (past that jump to minimum salary), nor will they.
However, if he makes the squad, very little doubt he gets a crapton of endorsements. He's marketing gold right now. Probably end up getting paid close to what he would've earned here!

 

[T.S Quint]

I think they have to upgrade him.
At the moment he is on a training contract basically, but if he makes the squad then he must meet the NFL minimum salary requirements.

For a player with no years experience in 2015, the minimum salary is $435k.

 

[Twizzle]

good on him, so happy for him

 

[strider]

US$435K = A$603K

so he's apparently just a bit worse that Hoppa in Scott Seward's considered opinion
