RELEASED Cowboys cut Bailey and Keep Maher!

[Cowboyz88]

Just bought his jersey

Not passing judgment…I mean, he was a great player and all, but a …kicker.

 

[StarMan2112]

Talk about a shocker. I wonder if Zeke made the team?

 

[Fontaine]

Wow, I’ll miss him. Mr. automatic....

 

[Batman1980]

He kicked vs SF and I think vs Cin

Has no real NFL stats as he has never kicked in a real NFL game.

 

[Vero_F250]

Not to be THAT guy but the move saves $3.5M. But still. What is happening!!!!

 

[ShortRound]

Wow ... are we tanking?

[CowboyStar88]

I am completely shocked by this one... They ditched him for a Journeyman K that’s bounced around since 2013 between the NFL and CFL? Does that even seem right? Wow.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Dang, that groin injury must be worse than we thought. I'm flabbergasted that we cut him.

 

[DOUBLE WING]

Hope this staff knows what they're doing. Bailey has been money for so many years. At the age of only 30 it's hard to believe he's anywhere close to being "done" - if this is purely for money reasons, then what an epic fail.

 

[SlammedZero]

I just got the alert on my phone and couldn't believe it. I had to run straight to this forum. What is going on?!?!

 

[Denim Chicken]

 

[BermyStar]

Wow

 

[TheCoolFan]

How much money would they save by releasing him now? At least let him kick in the regular season first and if he sucks then you can justify getting rid of him. Guys like Maher would have been available then as well

 

[Ranching]

Well seems like with gathers we have a real red zone threat.....

We can go for two everytime with Rico!!!

 

[Silverstar]

Has no real NFL stats as he has never kicked in a real NFL game.

Yep...talk about a leap of faith.

[RustyBourneHorse]

holy **** - may be more wrong with him than we know

Yeah, there might be something really wrong with his groin from last season if this is the decision.

$3.5 Million

Garrett did look pretty impressed when he nailed that 56 yarder Thursday night.

Got to have that kicker who can hit the long ones because your offense sputters out.
