    Not a huge surprise.

    Wonder why Wilson was brought up? Just for special teams I assume?

    Didn't see this coming, but can't say that I'm surprised either. He hasn't played(well) and 1.3 million is way too much money to be sitting around inactive on Sundays. On a related note someone better buy PWP a big box of tissues.

    A little surprising, but a little not. I figured they'd keep him just in case...seeing how they are paying him that kind of money. I guess they just said the heck with it and feel they can do fine with only 3 RBs on the team. Wonder if they tried to move him via trade or anything? Wonder if anyone will pick him up or not?

    Not sure what happened to him...but this year he looked a shell of his former self. Thanks for what you did do while you were here Redman!

    Is Alexander still on the PS? He is one injury away from being active on a Sunday, he is the only running back left behind Dwyer I believe.

    Wow, after getting an autograph from him after the game last night as he was driving out of the stadium... I was wondering why he seemed sad, I guess he already knew what was coming:hmmm:

    i tried to post pics but I can't from my phone, I also got autographs from Mclendon, Moye, Jarvis Jones, The Shark, Will Johnson and whoever number 10 is, not sure

    Yeah from opening day starter to off the team. In just six games, I'd be depressed too.

    Steelers won't touch him, they don't want anymore problem players.

    I'll hold off saying anything bad about him, Dwyer was cut and is now back running well. Could be the move is just to Wilson reps off the PS.

    I think I predicted this, but if I didn't...I meant to. :p The writing's been on the wall. Since he's been inactive for that past few weeks, and hardly played for the first few due to injury (concussion). After he told media that he went back in week 2 after getting a concussion, I didn't think he'd see the field much more. Wouldn't surprise me if the Giants gave him a call. Hell, they might actually dress him tonight. :lolol:
    Yeah, pretty weird stuff. I really liked Cierre Wood. Would be a great fit in a ZBS. I believe their reason for cutting him was that he walked into a room where cigars were being smoked. No joke.

    OMG .. That seems very irrational. Walking into a room where there is smoke gets you fired? WOW

    Think they would looking for a reason to let him go maybe?

    Maybe Kordell snuck back in :shrug:

    I just checked the roster on their website, no #10 listed, not even on the PS.

    Nah, I think they were all smoking blunts, or at least blunts were being smoked in the room. Though, it's against team rules to smoke cigars and cigarettes, and that was the reason I saw given by the Texans.

    Someone needs to check on PWP ASAP!
    Seriously though as much as Redman frustrated me this year I liked his style of running and he seemed like a good guy. I wish him the best wherever he lands.
