Eyebrows raised earlier in the day when news broke that the agent for former Falcons receiver Joe Horn reached out to the Miami Dolphins, given that Horn recently said he wants to play for a Super Bowl contender.
As it turns out, the Dolphins weren’t alone.
Per Jeff Darlington of the Miami Herald, Horn’s agent has contacted every team. (Except the one that just, you know, cut him.)
And while the Fins apparently are one of the Horn’s handful of preferred teams, the Dolphins have yet to contact Horn about a possible contract.
Other teams on Horn’s wish list are the Cowboys, Titans, Jaguars, and Rams. Horn hopes to land with a new team in the next three or four days.
And as a league insider observed, the Falcons probably opted to move Horn now because his $2.5 million guaranteed salary for 2008 likely will be reduced by any salary he earns elsewhere.

T.O. and Joe Horn together is one too many divas, ain’t it?
Joey Porter and Joe Horn together..? Oh My Gosh!!!!!!!!
Rams need all the help they can get.
I guessed the Titans too.
Vince needs all the help he can get.

The Eagles could use an extra Wide Receiver. Oh wait, he wants to play for a Superbowl contender, scratch that comment.

Haha. No Thanks.
Horn is 36.
He is an old, tired Diva.
That’s old, even for Wide Receivers.
Tell him to call Al Davis.

I guess he won’t be playing for the Vikings after all as I originally suspected given that he wants to play for a Super Bowl contender. I’m sure having a competent QB is probably on his wish list as well….. Too bad, because he’s better than the guy they made the 4th highest paid receiver in the NFL in free agency, even at 36yo.

Kinda scrappy for an old dude. I dig it! Yes, he’s a bit of a diva, but he’s working it and that shows me that he’s got some idea of the bind he’s in (being an old diva and all!)
Good luck, Joe. But maybe a little less lip while auditioning…

If he can figure out a way to enter the 2009 draft, Matt Millen will take him in the first round.

“And while the Fins apparently are one of the Horn’s handful of preferred teams, the Dolphins have yet to contact Horn about a possible contract.”
He’s older than dirt. They didn’t sign Glenn. They won’t sign Horn. There is a youth movement in Miami and 36 y.o. WRs with an attitude aren’t part of any rebuild. Horn can join the ranks of Culpepper and join the Idiot Nation: He had a strong contract and now will have to play for the minimum. Dumba*s.

Maybe he should explore the excellent opportunities in the fast-food industry or perhaps in the fledging real estate profession. Both would be better than his chances of latching on to an NFL team for league minimum.
Hell, even the Bungles would likely stay away from Horn at this point, opting instead for more career criminals - which seems to be their preference.
