The good news for guys who are cut in February is they have a head start on the free agent marketplace.

And just-released former Bills safety George Wilson is taking full advantage.

According to Jason LaCanfora of CBSSports.com, Wilson has already set up visits with the Lions and Titans, and more could be coming.

Getting Wilson’s $2.9 million salary off the books was apparently more important to the Bills than keeping the 31-year-old safety, who was a solid player for them.

It also increases the importance of hanging onto safety Jairus Byrd, a pending unrestricted free agent.
