RELEASED Jaylon Smith released

[CowboyRoy]

sad day for the team.

Amazing day. Cowboys took a new step forward.

 

[CWR]

sad day for the team.

Yeah I'm sure there are several on the team who will miss him. Tough business at times.

 

[lostar2009]

Um….don’t get that. He’s been a decidedly average NFL linebacker this year playing a lower number of snaps. You already owe him all his money this season and you’re not going to get anyone better off the street.

Just seems like a pointless move that only hurts depth

They might want to play Cox? He look good in PreSeason.

 

[john van brocklin]

Guys a piece of garbage

Don't even know how to respond to that.
To the ignore list you go.

 

[fivetwos]

If we have to reach for a 'silver lining' here, it's that they realized a mistake and took a step to get out of it, rather than seeing a bad contract to its end. (like they have in the past!)

Sure. I'm still stunned at the timing. It's odd.

I'm far from complaining thats for sure.

 

[NotForLong]

I sure hope Smith getting cut doesn't become a race thing given LVE's poor showings....wouldn't be surprised...already heard callers on post games asking aloud why Smith is being singled out, while LVE isn't....be patient, LVE will and should be next if he doesn't pick it up soon.

Hmmmmm

Just when Risen was bragging about his improved stride extension.

 

[CowboyRoy]

Yeah I'm sure there are several on the team who will miss him. Tough business at times.

Like who? I bet most thinks it way overdue.

 

[cowboysfan99]

Right business move. Obviously feel for the guy after everything he had to overcome, but he simply wasn’t good enough.

 

[mmohican29]

Support the move . Timing is very, very

But maybe now everyone on the roster will understand that the old ways are over.

You will play well, or you will be out. Your perception of your play is not the reality of the quality of it.

He did himself no favors I think with his team leadership role: the clothes, the sunglasses, the stench of his play.

I think Quinn & McCarthy just made the roster even edgier.

The funny part of it is to me is: he hasn't been nearly as bad as '19 and '20 Jaylon Smith.

God knows I think he's a bum. Go back and read my posts. I loathe the player.

You and jaylon on the same day? It’s like Xmas!

 

[Whiskey Cowboy]

True...unless Jaylon was on the field. Then you knew they were running right at him for a nice 7 or 8 yard gain every time.

Every time huh? That's an exaggeration. We're losing depth in favor of a bunch of guys who haven't proven they can last a full schedule, some of which have played minimal meaningful football. This is a problem that could bite us in the rear later in the season. His salary is already guaranteed. Why now?

 

[john van brocklin]

Let me get them out if the attic

Lol, don't bother

 

[Risen Star]

I'll bet you a beer that one of our defensive players will do the swipe at some point this season to honor him.

And I will HATE that player.

Unless it's Micah. He's my boo.

 

[NotForLong]

 

[Stash]

Sure. I'm still stunned at the timing. It's odd.

I'm far from complaining thats for sure.

I agree. The timing is a stunner.

 

[CowboysLegend365]

No he’s just a piece of garbage. On and off the field.

May I ask, based on what?

I don’t think Jaylon was good on the field— but I’ve never heard of anything he’s done off the field..

 

[CowboysDrew]

Well now.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Terrible news.

 

[RoboQB]

But others on here say he doesn't suck.

I know.

They look pretty stupid right now... lol
