They have roster spots available.
Added: there is probably mild cap saving
Barmore is what Cowart was projected to be.Such a tragedy. Cowart was Rivals' #1 overall (all positions) prospect coming out of high school in 2015 -- but failed at Auburn and looks to be failing in the NFL too.

I wonder if cases like this might be due to differential rates of physical development, i.e. maybe Cowart just developed earlier than his peers who later caught up and surpassed him. Well that's a less painful hypothesis than that he just screwed the pooch again and again.
I’ve said the same thing.Thank God Caserio left.
I hope that Roberts has a good camp and LaBryan Ray stays healthy and shows what he can do. It would be a boost to get another DT/DE figt[hting to get on the 53 or even the practice squad.Was rooting for him but found out I was rooting for what a player like him @ his ceiling could for us.
Perhaps Sam Roberts is walking with a little more purpose today. The size is intriguing. He's got an uphill battle but the door cracked open a smidge with this move.
I like the thought. Definitely makes sense as something that generally happens. In this case though... This guy would flash dominance at times in camp and preseason. He did have something there worth trying to bring out.Such a tragedy.

My thoughts on this:
- Showed up to camp not in shape
- Failed conditioning run
- Had run his mouth LAST year about Brady and then ended up not playing at all.
This was his 4 year. He's supposed to be a veteran. BB doesn't care for excuses and doesn't like when people run their mouths.
