Notable roster cuts
The following players were cut earlier this week:
- Peerless Price, WR, Atlanta Falcons
- Peter Warrick, WR, Cincinnati Bengals
- Chad Hutchinson, QB, Chicago Bears
The Price cut may be the highest profile cut of the week. Price, who was successful as a receiver in Buffalo, was supposed to be Michael Vick’s go-to receiver. Obviously, that didn’t work out. I suspect, however, that Price will catch on somewhere else — possibly with the Eagles, who are in dire need of receivers behind Terrell Owens and Greg Lewis right about now.
Warrick might catch on with someone as well, but he now has a reputation as being a little too fragile, which is poison around the NFL. He might need to go north of the border for a season or two to get his legs back under him.
As for Hutchinson… well, Chad was a bust in Dallas and Chicago. We won’t be hearing from him again for a while. Tim Couch will be back in the NFL first.
