A former New Orleans Saints teammate of Junior Galette's said exactly what the organization was thinking when it finally decided to part ways with the embattled outside linebacker: "He stayed focused long enough to get paid, then the real Junior came out. Sad."

Galette confirmed Friday that the Saints will release him, ending a five-year run with the team. He's lucky he lasted this long as the Saints initially began serious discussions to cut ties with Galette shortly after his January arrest for simple battery involving domestic violence.
