Unemployed quarterback Byron Leftwich claims he’s lost 25 pounds in an effort to return to the NFL but that hasn’t been enough for any team to give him a look since his release by Atlanta, according to Pro Football Talk.

Our View:Leftwich has never navigated the full 16-game slate during his five-year career due to various injuries. Given the fact that he isn’t currently on a NFL roster, it appears that most teams have questions about his ability to stay healthy.

Byron Leftwich, who was slowed by an ankle injury last season, has been released by the Atlanta Falcons, according to NFL.com. This is becoming a habit for Leftwich, who was cut by the Jacksonville Jaguars towards the end of training camp last year. This transaction represents quite the fall from grace for the former starter, who has battled injury issues his entire career. At this stage of the game, Leftwich will attempt to catch on with another team, either to compete as a starter or to fill a backup role.

Byron Leftwich got the start over Joey Harrington Sunday, but he didn't play like a guy who wanted to hang on to the starting job. Lord Byron completed just 15-of-28 passes for 106 yards while getting picked off twice. Harrington relieved Leftwich in the third quarter and played well, completing 16-of-20 passes for 139 yards and a score. The Falcons could go back to Harrington in Week 12, but whichever signal caller they end up using isn't likely to have much value.
November 16, 2007
Falcons head coach Bobby Petrino told the St. Petersburg Times that he will not name a starting quarterback until just prior to kickoff on Sunday. He made this announcement despite the fact that Byron Leftwich practiced for a third straight day and experienced no setbacks with his surgically repaired ankle.

Our View:Petrino has stated that Leftwich will be the starter once he’s healthy. However, there’s still a chance that Joey Harrington will get the call in Week 11. Check back prior to kickoff on Sunday if you actually care about the Falcons quarterback situation.
November 16, 2007
The Falcons trainer gave Byron Leftwich a favorable report regarding his surgically repaired ankle on Thursday. “I was happy with the report I got this morning from the trainer that there wasn’t any increased swelling or stiffness after yesterday’s practice,” Bobby Petrino told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. However, Petrino declined to name a starting quarterback for Sunday’s game against the Buccaneers.

Our View: Petrino has stated that Leftwich will take over the starting job once he’s healthy. We should have another update on Friday night unless they opt to make this a game-time decision.
