Hunter2_1 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Just reported on @gmfb: The #Packers waived TE Martellus Bennett because of a torn rotator cuff, per sources. He may try to play through it, but if he cannot, the #Patriots could put him on Injured Reserve. No risk for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pats#1 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 5 hours ago, ChazStandard said: How so? I don't like this argument much, but I think it hold in this case - players have no power over when they're cut, traded or waived. If you think of a way to get out of a contract you don't like, without breaking the law, I think that's fine. Players are cut, with coaches and GMs lying about the reason, all the time. And those coaches and GMs would be making d*** moves as well. I'm sure Bellichick has done it plenty of times. But signing a contract and then the same season mailing it in after the QB gets hurt, feigning retirement, and trying to get released by a team you willingling signed a contract with not even a year ago, I think is really scummy.

It's either not true, or they kept it quiet, or it's a new diagnosis. Either way, I'm not going to concern myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter2_1 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 He's another spectacular blocking TE, meaning we can release Gronk more often Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nextsuperstar1 Posted November 13, 2017 Author Share Posted November 13, 2017 Interesting that Bennett arrives (and plays!) and Allen catches his first pass, which is touchdown no less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
