Unless he has to pass through waivers first?


Side question, admittedly probably stupid, but what determines whether someone released has to go through waivers?

4 year vets don't go through waivers, they are FA and can sign where they want.

I thought if you were under contract you had to go through waivers. Foles however had a guaranteed contract that owed him $1.75 MM, he made a deal with the Rams to reduce his guaranteed money to a $1 MM buyout. He is a free agent since he no longer under contract.
