How can you cut a player who requires season-ending surgery?
That doesn't sound very family oriented.

He didn’t get cut for having surgery, he was cut because he wouldn’t turn his post operative pain meds to Irsay.

He just had groin surgery, so he's probably done for the year. Plus he's 29 and CB play typically drops off pretty quickly after age 30, so there's a real risk in signing him going forward. Assuming Butler is gone after this year, though, it might not be a bad idea to make a run at him.

His play already dropped off a cliff.

I'm guessing he reached an injury settlement with the team. Or else they're going to get whacked with a grievance. It's the Colts, though, so anything's possible.

Darius Butler?

Adam Butler. And he's right he does suck at CB. I hope they keep him on the DL.

 

[JoeB]

Aren't u not allowed to cut injured players like that? Kinda strange move by those fools.

This just in: his shoulder injury is between his ears.

Well it seems Irsay can do whatever the **** he wants, the Colta already hid Lucks injuries from the injury report and nothing happened, apart from ruining his QB of course.

 

[convertedpatsfan]

The Colts are incredibly dysfunctional, it's almost as if they're run by a drug-fueled maniac or something...

But seriously, between the Andrew Luck ****-talking by the owner and now this episode, I can't imagine any Colts player in the future wanting to risk their future playing through injuries. The organization has lost what little credibility it has, and I wouldn't be surprised to see top-level free agents strike Indy off their list.

 

[JoeB]

Good point! The double standard is real. Oh well, used to it now. We are winning super bowls and are in contention every year

I’m starting to sense another revenge tour in the making for 2017:

Colts
Ravens
Jets
Giants
Broncos

Let’s keep the list running deep.

 

[DaBruinz]

I think Gilmore's more useless than a guy like Allen. No thanks on davis. Is he even healthy?

And you wonder why you're not taken seriously by anyone.. SMH

It’s hard to talk about Irsay without it being sh.t talk.

 

[dafoe2016]

Pretty ugly back and forth. Indy never put him on the injury report and apparently totally disagrees with him about the apparent reasons for his poor play this year, the condition of his groin, and the need for surgery.

NFL really chews you up and spits you out when it's had enough. Sad/ugly to see it up close like this.

In all fairness to the NFL the Colts are becoming the new Browns. Just a joke of an organization.

The NFL players have an awful CBA.
