This makes me rethink my stance. I was wondering why folks were saying injury settlement was the best move. It appears the 6th Wednesday after the Superbowl we can release him and only owe the guaranteed money. With this new information I think we should cut bait

I could be totally wrong, but I thought a player was protected from being released until he was medically cleared or reached an injury settlement.
