but by releasing him this way and not holding onto him to try and find a trade partner we clearly think there's a decent chance we win that case
here comes the legal fight - we may end up with cap relief off the back of this but im assuming it will be disputed which means we probably wont get the benefit of the relief until next year or at least some time during the season would be my guess
I’d like to know what players said this. I can’t believe everything I read from the media. Regardless, he’s just been released
the players didn't want him either. This was an organization decision, not just a Harbaugh decision.Huge mistake on our part. You’re telling me Harbaugh couldn’t deal with ET when he’s dealt with so many personalities during his coaching tenure in Baltimore? Earl was quietly dominant as the season went on. I don’t trust Elliot to even last a game without getting hurt. Only way they can salvage this is trading him instead of cutting.

I mean it wasnt like his seattle earl which is what most were expecting.well he did well on the field here allowing only 113 yards, but it's his 'tude that is getting him traded or cut. Not really his play on the field.
I don't think anyone expected that. Yes he was still good, but he had aged. Kind of like Campbell. I expect him to be good and a fantastic leader, but I don't expect him to have his best days in Baltimore.I mean it wasnt like his seattle earl which is what most were expecting.
Marlon, Jimmy, Calais was probably added the second we signed him, Clark and some more defensive vets. I can’t really see any offensive players in it since they’re so young and I don’t think Lamar cares for that stuffWho makes up the players council ? Gotta believe Lamar is on it . Who else ?
Since it’s considered a leadership council , I’d be surprised if Lamar isn’t on it.Marlon, Jimmy, Calais was probably added the second we signed him, Clark and some more defensive vets.

Elliott looked frustrated as the ball was snappedwell you know its bad when the entire team doesnt want you back including the veteran leadership - and the fact that management and coaches and front office are all aligned on the idea that he cant be here then you know that something was going very wrong
and credit where credit's due (and i feel dirty just saying it) - but JLC had this nailed when the incident happened
it'll be interesting watching the 2019 season with a finetooth comb given the stuff we now know about meetings etc. but will be telling what the communication looked like with earl in 2019 because ive already just accidentally found one clip of him freelancing and getting it wrong while anthony levine with 1000 career snaps at this point, chuck clark (in his first start) and deshon elliott (who's only played 70 defensive snaps in his career) got it right and the guy with 0 starts actually covered for his misread
