It's hard to say on one hand you love the locker room presence of a guy, and then on the other, say you are establishing a different culture for your team citing a years-ago transgression for the same guy as a small part of why you are letting him go.
Ahh. I didnt hear/read RR saying that. My theory doesn't make a ton of sense then. RR seems like the type to not pull any punches and tell it like it is..hes a straight shooter, with upper management written all over him.

Re: Adrian Peterson cut

To borrow a term from legendary coach Bill Parcells, Peterson was ultimately a "progress-stopper": a veteran player with limited upside who was blocking the path for prospects who needed a chance. Ron Rivera needs to see who's part of the future and who isn't.
