It wasn’t long ago Chris Culliver was Washington’s high-priced answer to their cornerback problem.
As has so often been the case, he’s now unemployed.
Via Tarik El-Bashir of CSNMidAtlantic.com, Washington General Manager Scot McCloughan said that Culliver had just been released.
With the signing of former Panthers franchise-player Josh Norman and drafting Kendall Fuller, Culliver was the odd man out.
He’s coming off his second ACL tear in three years, but was only one year removed from a four-year, $32 million contract. Of course, the 2016 guarantees were voided when he was suspended one game for violating the league’s personal conduct policy, making it easier to swallow from a financial standpoint.
