They cut him in May and he didn't find a deal right away and opted out in July, but I kind of wonder if teams were shying away from him and that is why he opted out. I know they drafted Ruiz, but they drafted Ruiz with the intent to cut Warford looking back now. 

I don't know, I may be overthinking it but I wonder if there is some sort of red flag there the public doesn't know about. 

I think Covid was a big part of it. Warford was a cap casualty and was singled out because he went into 2019 out of shape. He wasn't allowed to travel to meet with teams and doctors because of Covid then opted out before training camp.

There might be more to it but I believe Covid was a big reason why he wasn't signed right away.
