Wow! I read late lastnight that he was released due to his weight. Didn't realize he came in at 400 lbs.

he was not released because of his weight..he was released because it continued a trend of him not caring..including being kicked out of the Pro Bowl for not showing up to pratcise the whole party boat incident...if he had been a consumate pro who never had an issue I can bet 100% they would have given him time to get into shape, but since this was the latest event in a long line of crap he has pulled they finally said enough is enough

True. Guess the weight issue was the last straw.
