We get back $6.5 million to the cap with this move.

Idk why they are being cheap right now, when his entire salary comes off the books next year...as he's only signed for one year.

I wonder if his poor work ethic is showing up again...

I can't imagine this being the case. He'll start Week 1.

You can roll money over to the next year.

It's really weird though.

This was weird at the top of the page, bit got weirder as went. What is this about? Apparently he was not sought after for trade or swap?

Curiouser and curiouser . . . . saywhat

Yeah, I cant think of a team that waives their starting LT seven days prior to opening day (obviously barring a trade/injury/etc)

This is an odd move given his small guarantee .. kinda stumped on this one

After trying to figure it out on Twitter, I think we have our explanation: on the NFL transaction list at 4 PM today, the move to IR Forbes was not listed on it, but cutting Robinson was listed. The Browns probably placed Forbes on IR after 4 PM, which makes him eligible to return from IR this season. Therefore, releasing Robinson was a “loophole,” and they should re-sign him right away. Brent Sobleski of The OBR notes that he thinks this could also be related to a longer-term deal coming for Robinson, perhaps one that was in place before the “loophole” was taken advantage of.

Dorsey strikes again! Sounds smart and makes sense to me now ... thats a loophole for sure

Probably ... but I'll feel better and state the same when it's complete and he is on the roster for wk 1 protecting Baker.

Whea I first read this I was , well there had to be something to rain on our parade. Then when I saw he would be resigned, I thought, good move. Sign him to a longer term deal with less money this year. Could turn out to be a brilliant move by Dorsey.

I'm curious as to how it would work... to keep another team from claiming him, when he's 'released'.

Do they make a wink-wink deal with the player's agent, knowing a longer deal will happen, or would that be even necessary?

Me too I hope there's more to this story than saving cap money.

Employees always perform better when the boss backs out of a deal and lowers their pay, said no one ever.
