I love how the author says Moreland has a "ball-hawking knack". What? So he's not really a ball hawk, but he has the knack for being one... OK...

BTW, he had one interception in 30 games. He must have had a bunch of "almost interceptions" though.

Anyway, I like Moreland, he is a great story and seems like a good dude. While I was surprised with the release, I wasn't blown away. I was equally surprised that they kept 4 tight ends, only 4 linebackers, and released AGG.

A year ago, we were looking at:
Kendall Fuller
Ronald Darby
Jimmy Moreland
Danny Johnson
Fabian Moreau
Greg Stroman

Now we have:
Kendall Fuller
William Jackson III
Benjamin St-Juste
Torry McTyer
Darryl Roberts
Troy Apke

Honestly, the secondary looks to be much improved (on paper) in my opinion. If you replace one of the six CBs currently on the roster with Moreland, I'm not sure that he makes the secondary any better.

All I know is Moreland made some big plays in different games last year, keeping Apke over him was stupid even if Apke is good on ST.

We kept Moreland too. He's on our injured reserve - put there post cut period so he is eligible to return after 3 weeks.

Read the link I posted above, he’ll be playing elsewhere.

I posted an article that said he was waived with an injury designation, once he cleared waivers he fell back onto our team as an IR'd player. Seems like no real clarification is out there.

Ben standing wrote this, makes it sound like he'll be playing elsewhere. I would love it if it's us:

@BenStandig
Regarding CB Jimmy Moreland and the waived/injury designation. He suffered a knee bruise, per source. Minor injury. Should be ready for Week 1. Which team, that's tbd.
