But if it came down to a decison of dropping one of the 2 (Edwards or Payton) because of potential salary cap issues, you would drop Payton and keep Edwards?
If memory serves I believe that the limit to when a player can be dropped without paying him his full salary is coming up. So, it may have been a cap based decision that had to be made ASAP.
"Following Robert Edwards' request, we have granted him his release," Als general manager/head coach Jim Popp said. "We want to thank him for two-and-a-half great years of football and wish him the best of luck with his future."
They should cut Avery and Jamel White, start edwards, and they should force hercule to give up #47 for edwards. Also the Argos need to tell their WRs to stop wearing low digit numbers, so that QB Robert Kent doesn’t have to wear #36 anymore.
