Ed Reed on his way out of Houston...

Halo · 11-12-2013, 01:36 PM

I think some of these guys have possibly lost a step. Calling out coach and being "outplayed" - yeah I can see how the coach may get a little mad.... but let's be honest, most free safeties run out of gas at 33 or 34, some even before. Reed is 35 and either at the end of his tank or the Texans felt his tank already ran out.

I'll take a PASS on him and Nnamdi. Loomis probably tried to sign them for what they were actually worth after workouts. They got a sweet deal elsewhere, but look where they are - both CUT.

And he's is only owed $400k on his current contract.

He is only due 400k. The Texans pick up the rest. I think he would be a good situational player with limited snaps for the next 7 games. I wouldnt sign him as a permanent solution.

That 400k will be needed next year with Graham extension/tag
and all the free agents needing paid

He was released Dude, meaning this is not a trade scenario. He would be getting a new contract where ever he goes.

He would probably sign for the assumption of the current contract. Mostly because I like to make assumptions.

There is no current contract... Released means its done. Closed. Finished.

Who are you releasing to make room?

Anyway do you want to know what is left on Reed's contract? $9M for 2014/2015
