A rookie free agent that fought for a roster spot day one and beat out the 3rd round draft pick. A true hustler, ill miss him and best of luck in what or wherever he does or goes.

Re: Pierre Thomas released...

Can't say I'm surprised. I thought the writing was on the wall as we started phasing him out of the offense even when healthy last season. Factor in his salary and Ingram's increased touches, it makes sense. As much as we all love PT, his production is replaceable a fraction of the cost.

Good luck PT. I'd like to see him in Philly or possibly be Vereen's replacement in New England. Belichick does like him.

Re: Pierre Thomas released...

i don't mind the move. Taking a page out of the Patriots book, rather release a player one year too early than one year too late...

Pierre gone and potentially losing Roll Tide... ouch ! I sure hope the front office have their replacements/upgrades at RB's in place.
No one was better in the screen game than PT. Made the difficult seem easy.

Football is a business and unfortunately good players are cut/released & teams move on.

Thanks for all you did for the city of New Orleans PT !

From his twitter account, even after getting cut he was still a class act. Going to miss him

Re: Pierre Thomas released...

I hate the business side of this sport. I get it, but it still blows. I thought he picked up the blitz pretty well, i think better than what we got now, Drew's happy feet or gonna be real happy this year, better have his head on a swivel, that's for sure. Any ways, PT was my favorite, gonna miss him.
