I think we all saw this coming.

This is unfortunate but next man up.

METAIRIE, La. -- The New Orleans Saints released wide receiver Cameron Meredith on Monday, just four days into his second training camp with the team, a source confirmed to ESPN.

The former Chicago Bears standout was hoping to finally return from a major 2017 knee injury, but the Saints apparently didn't see enough to believe that a comeback would be possible.

They can delete all of them now. The FAs must be looking good.

This is unfortunate for Mr. Meredith.

Many will forget he tore his ACL & MCL while in Chicago. Devastating injury that could realistically end his career. Prior to that, he was on his way to becoming a solid player.

I really wanted this to work out.

Wishing you nothing but the best going forward

Kudos to the franchise for committing money and time to the kid’s recovery effort. And releasing him early in camp. Wish him well. In hindsight the money would’ve been better spent but hey, that’s the breaks.

On a positive note I’m thrilled to see Butler’s game!

Makes Chicago’s drs look like geniuses, and Paton an Mick look like —————

Who are the f*cking Docs advising Payton and the Mickster on medicals for contracts?!? Are we still employing Ochsner Docs?!?

I think this move was more about freeing cap for the Thomas deal and the emergence of Butler early in camp than Meredith himself. He has to have been cleared on the injury front or his release would have had to have been tied to an injury settlement.
