A little over a week ago Jarryd Hayne spoke about the "cut-throat" nature of the NFL, a multi-billion dollar sports league where the rewards are immense and the falls steep.
The former Parramatta Eels fullback was fired by the San Francisco 49ers on Saturday after six regular-season games.
It came as a shock to fans and media, although, taking into account the sad state of the two-win five-loss 49ers and the injury to their star running back Carlos Hyde, it was an understandable move.
Blessed for another test. Thanks for the love TW. Wish my guys all the best against the Rams. if nothing happens Ill be back on Tuesday✌🏽

It appears Hayne won't be out of an NFL job.
He could be back at the 49ers by Tuesday, but the chances are he'll be on a plane on Monday to one of the other 31 NFL teams, quite possibly the Detroit Lions.
