Patriots Player Departure Official 2021 Cutdown Day Thread

[PowerRunRevival]

Still waiting for the tweet: the #patriots cut Cam Newton

Man, you certainly didn't need to wait long!

Can you get a room before you satisfy yourself in front of all of us

 

[Schmo]

Holy shhh.....

Miguel, cap savings?

 

[Lagaffe_07]

That aged well!

It has escalated quite fast !

Bill Belichick: Cam Newton is "definitely moving in the right direction" - ProFootballTalk
Let’s hope that direction is towards the bench. Probably won’t be cut though.

Looks like “the right direction” was the exit.

 

[BlueThunder]

Was that a legit article or a spoof? Patriots release Cam Newton, rookie Mac Jones now slated to start Week 1 for New England, per report

 

[Horace's Ivories]

Now go get Wilkerson back

 

[DaBruinz]

I'd have kept him over Gunner

You'd have kept a nobody over an one of the best Punt Returners in the league?? SMH

 

[raduray]

Wow! Felger called it last night on the Boston Sports show.

Don’t give me ideas.

$1.9m according to OvertheCap

@Newton England @FearNo.1 @malik Do we need to do a wellness check on you guys?

 

[raduray]

So is there a difference between cut, released, waived?

 

[WaterfallJumper]

Growing pains incoming. Let's be patient with Jones through the ups and downs. But wow! I'm excited! Can't wait for the season!

 

[DaBruinz]

So is there a difference between cut, released, waived?

Yes. If you are cut/released it means you have 4+ accrued seasons and not subject to waivers.

Players with Less than 4 years are subject to waivers

Yup, there's a pretty good chance that Flores knows what the Patriots want to do with Mac, and knows exactly where the early limitations are going to be for him. It may be a rough entry week 1, so we should take that with a grain of salt if he doesn't look great right away.

The moment @Miguel takes a nap expect big things to happen

I'm good with growing pains as opposed to limits in ability.

 

[jah]

By my count, we need to make 10 more cuts (more if we activate guys like Gilmore, Stidham, Hall, Cowart).

 

[long distance]

looks like we woke him up



here's looking at you, Nick C..
