Seattle, New England or Cleveland!

no way, just cause they don't want another headache on their hands!!

the lowest teams on the waiver wire, why not pick him up to be a back up

Not so sure any team will grab him off of waivers because his contract goes with that.

If you are released there is no contract?

At least that is how I thought it worked.

He has to be unclaimed off of waivers. Once he passes through waivers without being claimed, then I think he can be picked up with a new/smaller contract, IIRC.

But certain vets don't pass through waivers, they just automatically become FA's. Not sure how many years you need for that though.

I say sign him for the minimum, if he'd agree to it. It's not like we have a better back up RB than him.
