I imagine Kyle knows that, since he wrote the original article. He'd probably appreciate people clicking the link to read the article.

2. WR Krishawn Hogan (waived)
3. FB Ricky Ortiz (waived)
4. DE Gus Cumberlander (waived)
5. WR Tommylee Lewis (waived)
6. G Adrian Magee (waived)
7. RB Taquan Mizzell (waived)
8. WR Maurice Harris (terminated contract)

At somepoint Stallworth's name will be a part of this list.

What's the difference between "waived" and "terminated contract"?

What's the difference between "waived" and "terminated contract"?

Waived means the player has to go to the waiver wire and can be claimed by another team before becoming a FA. Terminated Contract means they have enough years accrued to where they can skip the waiver wire and just become a FA right away.
