Why I would avoid Jadeveon Clowney in free agency

On Sunday morning I posted a profile on free agent defensive tackle D.J. Reader because I believe he’d be one of the better values than some other d-line options who might be able to free up space necessary for Maxx Crosby, Clelin Ferrell, and others. One other much more high profile free agent brought up in the comments section was Reader’s former teammate with the Houston Texans, Jadeveon Clowney.

Now let me quickly tell you why I think Clowney is arguably the least desirable edge rush options on the market, even if he is one of the most disruptive players we’ve seen hit free agency in the last decade.
