Rourke is better than the bottom 1/3 of NFL quarterbacks with potential to climb higher. He has much better football sense than a lot of them which are just bumbling around right now.

Edit: Ah, I see New England had a couple practice roster QBs sign elsewhere, so perhaps they do intend to keep him.
Trade deadline is also over in the NFL so he's with them for the rest of the season and HAS to stay on the main roster. So he'll make a good chunk of change too!
