I'll never understand people's real dislike for the guy.

He eventually pivoted to baseball after years of not playing and developed into a serviceable minor leaguer.
He probably sees an opportunity to get one last chance to play in the NFL with his college head coach. Why not go for it?
If the guy were all about the money, I'm pretty sure he wouldn't have spent the last several years riding the bus as a minor league baseball player in his spare time.

Ignoring the backlash from vastly unearned media attention angle, the reason I don’t like him is because he seems like a bit of a showboat.
He should have transitioned to TE like 1-2 years into his NFL, if not immediately. But he wanted to play QB and flamed out. He then embarked on a effort-filled but quixotic quest to mold himself into a MLB player.
In short, he seems like an attention seeking dumbass.
