Final Cuts From Around the NFL

Wonder why the Pats released Meriweather?


I know they had issues with him "free lancing" (aka lavar arrington'ing it up) and benched his ass. Wonder if that came back into play.

edit: I think I answered my own question.

WBZ-TV’s Levan Reid On Meriweather:

Brandon Meriweather has been in Bill Belichick’s dog house for over a year now. Those days are over, word is Brandon Meriweather has been released.

Meriweather is a 2-time pro bowler and one of the hardest hitters in the league but he loves to freelance. In a Bill Belichick system, freenlancing is not welcome. The Pats have also released James Sanders. So now the safeties in this team are Patrick Chung, Josh Barrett, Sergio Brown and James Ihedigbo.

If BB doesn't like freelancers on his team, what does he think Haynesworthless is going to do?
