I'm pretty sure his career is going to be over. I haven't heard anything, but last I knew is that he was a free agent. I'm guessing if he does sign with someone, it wont be for long, and he'll probably get shipped to the World League or Canadian League.
Wow, that sucks.
Oh well, at least he's been much more fortunate than most from this area.
Officially retired
I believe he signed with KC after the end of last season. I may be mistaken but Im pretty sure he went out there a couple of times as soon as the season was over.

According to what I heard today, Justin was told by his agents to sign the DL waiver papers with Cleveland, and that they would be free from any liability--and that the agent was going to get him on with someone else (KC). Justin was rehabbing, playing the waiting game, and the agents couldn't come to an agreement with KC on two different occasions in the fall. Personally, I thought his best shot at getting a gig would be to work out at the VT Pro Day, maybe catch someone's eye in front of some scouts--but his agents told him that he should stay away--and that they were still trying to broker some deals for him.
...and I was told today that he was told by his agents that he needed to go up to the CFL. So, without saying anything--I think his agents have basically said "we dropped the ball, couldn't make you a deal, go to Canada".

I'm not meaning this bad at all, I wish the guy the best. However, I dont think his agents would've dropped the ball. He just didn't show much promise in college, and nothing special in the games he got play in the NFL. They couldn't make deals, because teams were probably wanting to pay him what he's actually worth, and that would be base salary. CFL or world league would be his best bet at getting more experience to come back. Heck, he could always go to Arena League, that's getting mroe and more popular.
