DeAngelo Hall says that the Redskins should cut him - Shutdown Corner - NFL*Blog - Yahoo! Sports

Probably the most in-sincere statement I have ever read. Does he REALLY want to get cut? What happens if he does?

Nothing. Since he was on the roster week one of the season his entire seasons salary is guaranteed for the year. Whether he is there for 2 games or all 16, he still gets his full season salary.

If Hall were truly sincere in what he said, he would go to his agent and insist that he negotiate a lower contract because he thinks he is not playing up to his current contract.

Why not? Because you know what would happen if the roles were reversed. If he had 9 interceptions and 3 pick six's on the season he would be screaming for a new contract. Because he feels he "outplayed" his current deal.

Get real Hall. Just play.
