5 catches for 67 yards in the last three years combined. Activated in 11 games in three years. How is that part of cleaning house. Gonzalez has been done since 2009. Surprised he wasn't cut before this point.

Again, this is part of the myth that the Colts were talented last year and just trying to tank it for Luck. Gonzalez was a flash in the pan player who has spent more time on injured reserves than on the field.

No big deal that he cut him. He should send the Colts a gift basket that they kept him for his fifth season so he could increase his pension since his career is over.

The reason they kept him is bc Manning liked him. Poor guy though. Injuries screwed him over...including one thanks to a cheap shot from Pollard..5 yards past the sidelines.

There was a lot of love for Gonzalez here the year he was drafted. I thought he would have fit in with the Pats well and wasn't happy when the Colts took him. Not staying healthy killed his career.

There's only two conclusions for Patriots fans on rookies. They are either a bust or being fitted for their bust in Canton.

He actually would have been a good fit here, but you have to start thinking the health issues are just too much. Players who miss that much time often lose skill and sharpness.

But, for the vet min, if he is truly healthy, I'd bring him in. Fully healthy, he would have been our 3rd best WR last year.

Talk about being screwed over due to injuries.

He's either a vet minimum player or will be out of the league, might be worth signing him for camp. Healthy I think he would be a better #3/#4 WR than Branch or Ocho.

wouldn't mind him as a camp body/shadow roster guy.
