Stupar is not gone. He's just not on the roster currently.

How exactly would that conversation go?
“Hey Nate, we are going to release you but we will bring you back later on. We aren’t going to pay you but do us a solid and don’t sign anywhere else. Let’s shake on it.”
Barry from MS and Mr Magic like this.

actually, that's exactly how it goes... started with Norman Hand years ago and has happened with the 3rd QB or 6th receiver or 8th or 9th OL or 4th TE every week since

Don't clean out your locker and leave your phone on

Just got to your reply. I've heard Pat Kirwan, former GM, say just that on NFL Radio more than once over the past few years. Extremely common move.

Starting to think this is not so much about a roster spot for Gray vs Stupar; nor a RB vs Stupar...

But rather, this is a Bridgewater salary slot, QB Depth more valuable than Stupar contribution, salary cap costs...

Surprisingly enough, it is probably close to that.
