[huh??]

Released just for comments he made?

Here is our chance! GOODBYE MIKE ADAMS.

Last time we picked up one of the Texan's cut players, it worked out pretty well for us. However, I suspect he will not make it through waivers.

ED REEEED!!!!

Why released? Cause he's sucking? And if so, why would we want a player in suck mode?

I'm guessing it's moreso about Reed being demoted.

ED REEEED!!!!

He's been hurt and hasn't performed. Still a little weird though.

[TonyR]

Washed up.

More likely because he has not contributed to the team and when he finally did make the field he was out of position a couple times.

The comments were likely a breaking point.

Runs like a 340 pound nose tackle now. No thanks. At least Adams can run a stay healthy.

Nice severance package for Ed Reed. Front your way into a 3 yr, $15 million dollar contract as a FA, $6 mill up front and a few weeks after you sign, relay that you have a tear in your hip labrum, need surgery and will be out until week 1.

I only wish the Chiefs would have signed him.

[Sly_Eli]

yeah, but can he run a 40?

This. He has completely sucked this year.
