in the box safety?
Not sure  
viggie : 8/19/2018 1:58 pm : link
He was purely a money cut . 5 year starter
Seems odd to wait this long to release him  
BigBlue4You09 : 8/19/2018 2:03 pm : link
Just for financial reasons, no?
Can't afford him

He was drafted

With the pick we traded for OLB Keith Rivers.
sounds like a perfect complement to Collins

He played FS the past two years.
This player would help us, if we could find a way to pay him....  
No Where Man : 8/19/2018 3:01 pm : link
Next......find a RT....
I wouldn’t just say we can’t afford him  
Mark from Jersey : 8/19/2018 3:04 pm : link
Given how weak the safety market was in the off-season. Don’t know anything about him but seems odd just to dismiss adding someone to safety when the market for them has been weak.
Watch the Cows  
ChicagoMarty : 8/19/2018 4:26 pm : link
snatch him up
4.8 mil in salary  
BillT : 8/19/2018 5:16 pm : link
If claimed off waivers. There is a roster bonus as well.

More likely teams will wait until he clears and try and sign him as a FA.
per ESPN  
Gregorio : 8/19/2018 5:19 pm : link
he was released for financial reasons. What would he cost?
He's a better SS than FS  
JonC : 8/20/2018 8:50 am : link
but I'd work him out for the FS competition, we're hurting there.

I wanted us to sign him when he was a FA 2-3 years ago. I'd still have interest- just not sure it's feasible cap-wise.

As I have previously opined, who better than Abrams to make it financially possible? That’s assuming of course, they want him in the first place
