I’m sure there’s plenty of football players who would love the chance to play with the San Francisco 49ers but quarterback Seneca Wallace gave up that chance and left on his own accord after he alleges the team tried to use him. Read more after the jump.
Former 49ers quarterback Seneca Wallace says the only reason San Francisco signed him this preseason was to squeeze fellow backup quarterback Colt McCoy to get a pay cut.
“I’ve been around this game long enough where I can see what’s going on,” Wallace told the Des Moines Register, “and I realized right away the reason they brought me here was to get Colt to take a pay cut.”
Wallace, who left the 49ers amid reports that he was retiring, said that in reality he just didn’t think San Francisco was the right place for him.
“I have not retired,” Wallace said. “I have just removed myself from the San Francisco situation because it wasn’t a perfect fit for me.”
After being out of the game for two years and at 33 years old, Wallace is probably retired whether he wants to or not. I doubt any team is going to want him citing that and the way he speaks out against a team he was apart of.
