calvin pryor got an offer to do a reality dating show.. but his gf said he couldn't do it :mjcry::mjlol:

FLORHAM PARK — Calvin Pryor isn't just a hard-hitting safety in the Jets' secondary. He's apparently a hopeless romantic, too.

Most people already know about the football part. All nearly got a glimpse into Pryor's love life, too. The 24-year-old told NJ Advance Media on Wednesday he was nearly the star of a bachelor-themed reality TV show this offseason.

"My agent called and asked me if I wanted to be," Pryor said.

No, Pryor isn't joking.

The concept of the show was going to be pretty simple: A handful of women — five or six, according to Pryor — would compete to win his heart. Pryor would take them on dates, and at the end of the series, he would pick which one he wanted.

In a way, it's not much different than what Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is doing on his own reality TV show. "Catching Kelce" will debut on the E! channel Oct. 5. The show features 50 women try to earn Kelce's love.

"I thought it was a very cool idea with being on TV, the brand, and everything like that," Pryor said. "It would have been fun to take all of them on dates."

When Pryor's agent originally pitched him the concept, Pryor said he started to think of a few date locations and ideas. The show was apparently going to let him formulate his own plans for dates. The first was going to be a picnic, and the second a trip to the beach.

He never got a chance to delve too much into the game planning, though. See, there's a minor holdup: Pryor isn't a bachelor. He has a girlfriend. And she wasn't too keen on him dating around.

"She cut me off before I could explain the details," Pryor said. "I really didn't know if I could just do it for fun, or if it would have to be a serious thing. Once I asked my girlfriend, and she said 'no,' that ended that."


Still, Pryor said he was flattered by being considered.

"What can I say?" Pryor said with a smile. "I'm a good-looking guy."


The funny reason why Jets' Calvin Pryor had to turn down bachelor TV show

Just putting this out there (half joking), but with ASJ recently being released, do you make that call?

Can he block ?
:yeshrug:
Don't get even TB games to know. I don't remember that being part of the draft talk about him though. I remember hearing he was more of a receiving TE. I could be wrong though.

Considering Todd Bowles offensive methodology...

If it's a TE who can't block... then ...:camby:


Whether it be because of the pisspoor stock of TEs or because a TE ran over the Jets organization pet kitten... We don't have much use for a strong receiving/weak blocking TE. :manny:

they just released the video of his arrest...he's not getting signed for a while. And considering Amaro seemed to have issues with the bottle too...doubt they go down that route.
