My wild speculation is that many teams fear this.

For a team that thinks it has a chance to contend, why add a backup quarterback that could sew division, either from complaining about playing time or from bringing divisive issues to the attention of the team. That's pretty similar to the Tim Tebow phenomenon a few years ago. However, like you said, a team with an entrenched qb and a backup need would be willing to have him compete in training camp.

But you'd think there are enough teams that are bad enough that it's worth seeing if he can return to old form and who can use a shot of publicity. The problem is that in the past couple of years, Cincinnati was one of those teams. But it has a conservative fan base for which the signing probably would've harmed attendance.
