Re: So long Mason Foster

The timing of the release was a fuck you move by the team for last years tweets, that’s my guess.

I do think this is part of the truth, if the rest of it is:

+ the FO is making a legit push to get TW back in camp, then it's a solid move.

If they truly wanted to F with him they could have held on to him until the final cut giving him no chance to catch on as a starter somewhere else.

The timing was this simply about this, they didn't make a move until they had to.

Good point.

Sheehan actually took this point even further the other day saying they could've/should've waited even longer, until they were 100% sure with what they had at ILB without him.

This makes me think even more that this was a cap move in order to deal with the LT situation (sign Penn and/or find a common ground with TW).

Literally, everybody who covers the team has said those tweets were out of character for Foster. He was universally recognized as a good team mate and good locker room guy.

His game was severely lacking and he should have never been a week 1 starter, but that was the FO's fault more than his.

I really hate he will be remember by most fans for those stupid tweets. I've listened to tons of great, selfless interviews he gave, but his worst moment as a Redskin will be what stands out.
