Let's see what Williams says about it. This was his call. He may give us some clue. My position at this point is the simplest explanation is the best: he got outplayed. This would make more sense if they had not brought in Godfrey which makes it seem like they are not completely satisfied with the play of the others.


As for the timing, I think they wanted to avoid putting him to the curb with the rest of the first cut garbage. It's a small concession to his service for the team that will be better for him. No, it's not the necessarly the savviest or most cutthroat thing they could have done. But it's not likely they would have gotten that much, if anything, for him. If you are willing to trade a guy at this point, chances are you are going to cut him at some point anyway and other teams know this.
