Curtis Lofton Released

s2kguy · 03-09-2015, 03:37 PM

According to @AdamSchefter ·
Saints officially released LB Curtis Lofton today.

Saints released ILB Curtis Lofton.

The Saints had been shopping Lofton for trade, but predictably found no takers. The move clears $4.25 million in space for the cap-strapped Saints. A durable compiler, Lofton has never missed a game while racking up tackles, but is coming off an extremely rough 2014. He was uneven all three of his years in New Orleans. Going on 29, Lofton has been a starter for his entire seven-year career, but may have to accept a reduced role in free agency.

Coach isnt playing this summer

Saves 4.2ml or 7.2ml depending on pre/post june cut.

Well the onus is really on the coaches now. NO MORE EXCUSES! Do it now or the heads better roll.

We need youth and athleticism at the position. Mr Lofton thank you but it's time to move on.

Yes. You are right. 4.25mil

I understand this move. We need to get younger and faster. Lofton was solid player for us but nothing more. His stats are misleading (tackles...)
