[size=15.199999809265137]So why did the Falcons feel compelled to cut retired tight end Tony Gonzalez on Tuesday?[/size]
[size=15.199999809265137]Per a league source, Gonzalez was due to receive a substantial bonus if on the roster as of Thursday. The Falcons had assumed that Gonzalez would file retirement papers, which would eliminate the bonus.[/size]
[size=15.199999809265137]The only problem? Gonzalez hasn’t filed his retirement papers.[/size]
[size=15.199999809265137]And possibly all that that implies.[/size]
[size=15.199999809265137]It forced the team’s hand. And it now gives Gonzalez maximum flexibility for 2014, in the event he decides to pull a Brett Favre and return. He won’t have to clear waivers, he won’t have to force a trade.[/size]
[size=15.199999809265137]Even if he doesn’t intend to come back, it makes sense that he has put himself in position where he has the widest possible range of options for the coming season.[/size]
[size=15.199999809265137]The Tinhorn would have just blown this off and said after the fact when Gonzalez's $$$ was due---Whoa, I thought you were retired! LOL. Assmunch. [/size]

Tinhorn would have picked him up just as soon as Ringo said, " Go for it."
