Not surprising considering the guy was a 7th Rd. pick who basically never set himself apart from anyone else. He should consider changing his Twitter name, tho.

I guess it wouldn't surprise me, especially if they keep only 4 WR.

Is he just disappointed in his results, or did they tell him already?

I wonder if he's gone for good or if he'll be back on the PS. I'd hate for him to go somewhere and go Tramon Williams on all our asses. I'd like to see him stick around. He's more athletic than Tolliver. Dickerson, I mean.

Before I say this let me say I am a fan of Steve Slaton's and hope he somehow gets sprinkled into our offensive plans though I realize that that is highly unlikely. So that being said does anybody make anything of this part of the comments made by Kubes:

On not playing Steve Slaton against the Vikings with the final cut looming: “He was healthy enough to play. That was strictly me. He was coming off hamstring. We only had two practices and one of them was a walk-through. I didn’t feel comfortable putting him out there on turf after he’d been gone so long. I think you keep good football players. Steve is a good football player. We’ll have to see how that pans out. I know what Steve is. I (didn’t play him) because I didn’t think it was real smart. That was just a decision on my part.”

It almost seems to me like they are going to keep him. Just was wondering about ya'lls thoughts.

It wouldn't be a shock keeping 4 RB's what with all the nagging injuries. All four (Ward, Slaton, Tate, Foster) have had something bothering them. Ironically, the only one (Ogbonnaya) who has remained healthy might be the one that is cut or PS'ed....

No way do I keep slaton. He's been terrible for 2+ years.

So you're saying that Kubiak deliberately kept him out of the game Thursday so he could cut him today? With Kubiak at the helm I suppose anything is plausible.
