New Orleans Saints release Junior Galette

Re: Saints release Galette

I don't get how this helps anything in the future. Besides just keeping a creep out of the locker room. Maybe that's enough though.

"By releasing him after June 1, however, the Saints would only have to take a $5.45 million cap charge in 2015 and could push $12.1 million (for the remaining bonuses) to 2016.


If Galette's release is related to off-field behavior, they could try to reclaim some of the money spent on bonuses, or perhaps a portion of his fully guaranteed 2015 salary, but that would likely be met with objections from Galette and the players union."

New Orleans Saints release Junior Galette, according to source | NOLA.com

One thing I learned from drinking. You should always go Christmas caroling with a group. Oh, and always in mid-December.

We'll probably take a hit on the money side but at least it sends a message!

Defensive captain one season, released before the next one!

No, it being a post June 1st release it lowers our cap hit this season.

Something new entered the equation because we're a long way past June 1st.

Injury and/or impending suspension.

Re: Saints release Galette

I don't think it has anything to do with the money or the cap or what happens in the future....I think they just decided they want the dude gone, period, plain and simple. I suspect they also got an earful about this guy, from the actual season ticket holders. I know a lot of LONGTIME seat holders who were very angry/frustrated about him and the off-field issues.

Re: Saints release Galette

If he is suspended it's likely it will be for three games since the act happen prior to the rule change

I wonder if the saints can withhold the 12 million owed to him next season since Galete agent said it wasn't him on the video with the belt making a case that the saints didn't know of this conduct before the signning of his contract. Either way this about to get messyyyyyyyyy
