[Balko] Paxton Lynch is the only quarterback to ever be benched in the NFL, CFL, XFL, and USFL.

1. He’s out there setting records. Good for him.

2. This is the dude so many argued over… What a chump.

3. That’s my guy lmao

4. Never forget when Mile High Report and Benjamin Allbright kept slandering and talking shit about Siemian just so Paxton Lynch could start.

5. I don’t really wish him any ill will, and it sucks to see someone struggle this hard at their dream, but at some point you gotta think about a career outside of being a QB.

6. Can we please get over hate-jerking over this guy? Lynch has nothing to do with the Broncos anymore. Let’s all move on — goddamn.

7. Day 2689 of the Paxton Lynch Smear campaign

8. Time to put that Bachelors in Sport/Leisure Management from Memphis to good use, I believe.

9. Missed out on the AAF.

   AFL and FCF still options.

10. I think almost any other player in his shoes would’ve given up by now. Props to him for staying at it and trying to follow his dream

11. At least he’s consistent

12. Maybe he just isn’t that good.

13. My man just isn’t good at football but that’s not going to stop him

14. Not a fan of hating on him, but it’s an interesting tidbit for sure.

    My prediction: Greatest.Redemption.Story.Ever when he wins the NFL mvp and leads the undefeated NY Jets to the Super Bowl championship in 2025. Book it!

15. Missed out on the aaf

16. I hear the arena league’s coming back. He can go for 5 benchings!

17. Love you pax, might be time to hang em up

18. Funny (kind of?) but he was never actually benched in the CFL. Was barely ever even on the active roster. That would be like saying a rookie practice squad QB in the NFL was benched after he never played a down.

19. Still maturing

20. That is quite the accomplishment

21. He’s made millions doing it too

22. He was our first round draft pick a few years back, whose big boy decision was that?

23. Day 9732 of the Paxton Lynch Slander-o-thon!

24. No one’s ever drafted a QB like this

25. The rare Quadrifecta

26. Poor bastard is basically Wile E Coyote at this point. I mean I guess you got to respect that he keeps trying.

27. to this i say… LOL

28. Legend.

29. Suxton Lynch

30. The guy has made 9 million in career earnings already so he’s financially set for life. Maybe he just wants to play as long as he can wherever he can and doesn’t care about the money and the accolades honestly. If you were in his shoes, wouldn’t you do the same?

31. Maybe football isn’t your game, Pax. I know, let’s have a spelling contest.

32. WTF was John Elway thinking drafting this guy in the 1st Round???

33. In his defense, the receivers were terrible too. I watched the game and they weren’t helping him at all. The XFL was pretty good football though. They have a chance to solidify themselves with the NFL being so soft

34. To the Arena football, Omaha beef

35. At least he’s consistent…
