”It’s never easy to release veteran players who have contributed to the team’s success and these three individuals certainly fall into that category,” head coach Ken Whisenhunt said in a team statement. “But like every decision we make, it simply comes down to what is in the best interest of our football team and what gives us the best chance for success. We’re grateful to all three of them for their contributions and wish them nothing but the best in the future.”
