first urban being cut by the titans forcing us to get rid of bethel and now this?
I thought this was interesting regarding Bethel and his contract.

According to Brian McFarland, no (or at least not yet). See the following Twitter exchange:

So we cut Bethal because of the Titans move?? To do what again? Plz someone explain cause it sure does look like the FO didnt think the Pats would make that move and now their pretending like it was planned and want to do it back to them. Only problem is the pats will make it work in their favor while we just did it for a headline.

Seriously tho why we cut him?
Man I think u guys give them to much credit. I'm starting to believe that a majority of these guys "in charge" our your basic lil simpletons. I mean i haven't been blown away like wow what a great move! Other than trading the kicker that was more of another dumbass trading with another dumbass.
