Geoff Schwatz provides context on why Bene was cut.

Still not the only reason

[Kakarot]

I knew it. Bene said too much, and sometimes you can say too much. His mouth got his ass cut. He should've never admitted to being winded or out of shape out there.

[LinvilleGorge]

Surely that isn't the reason or even a contributing factor.  If so... wow.  Petty as FUG.

[Jase]

pretty sure bene didn't have to say he was gassed out there.  Anybody with two eyes could tell.

[OneBadCat]

Damn so why not just bust his ass and make his ass run laps? 

When he's ready he can play at a good level. Still seems brash.

he also shouldn't have been out of shape...

I feel like conditioning should be on the coaches. Maybe they need to stop playing in the literal center of hell in the offseason, and instead find somewhere the players can move around for more than 10 minutes without falling out.

''Tis is true, and video would've pointed out he was out of shape, but he made it a lot easier for the coaches by admitting it. Sad, because I like Bene and don't think he's all the way recovered from that leg. 

[pantherphan96]

wonder if the injury is why he is out of shape

im curious to see how fast he gets scooped up. somebody's gonna take a chance on him, he's been serviceable for us for quite some time

The guy got abused all over the field and I hate it for him.  It was a lose/lose situation for him.  When Julio went out, the guy that came in that he had to cover, always ran go-routes.  Making him gassed so when Julio came back in, was a cake walk burning him over & over again.  (at least thats what Bene was reported to saying) Falcons saw a big weakness and exploited it.

So he talked himself out of a job?
