You know, in retrospect, I think it's fair to say this was only a matter of time. I don't mean that it was inevitable that Chad Kelly would get booted for being too belligerent for what looked like a pretty wild Halloween party by his own Broncos' teammates, break into a random house, casually plop his ass down next to a confused family, and get beaten into police custody with the aluminum hose of a Hoover. I do, however, mean that you can only expect someone nicknamed 'Swag Kelly' to remain hushed in the shadows but for so long. "What's in a name?" is a question that has been asked countless times throughout history. Well, when that name is derived from the party scene of the hip hop community and given to the someone who is supposed to play the silent understudy for the most straight-laced position in sports, what's in that name is quite a bit of foreshadowing. Obviously someone that drank/drugged himself into an unbabysittable stupor at the most forgiving of work functions probably didn't have the temperament or tolerance to become a starting quarterback in the NFL. However, he definitely didn't have what it takes to be backup quarterback in the NFL, which is the ability to shut the hell up, not cause a scene, and be far better in theory than execution. When you look at it that way, it's basically a minor miracle he made it this long cashing checks for holding a clipboard without letting his rampant urge for recklessness put his job in jeopardy.
