Eric Berry Released!
It's done. The spirit is free. (Don't go towards the light.)

We had to let him go. Sucks because at his best he was such a beast. Way to much drama last season though and was such a distraction.

I wonder if we will ever get the real story of what happened last year and the year before with his contract.

I feel for Berry...it seemed like every time he was showing flashes of his potential...something bad happened. The first time he blew oit his knee...which was the result of a super aggressive tackle. Then he comes back and plays great...then cancer. Then he comes back again...and he was giving Gronk headaches all game...then he tore his achilles. He had heart and talent and leadership...but that can’t make up for his tremendous misfortune. He was among my fave Chiefs ever and all I can do is say thanks and wish him nothing but the best moving forward. I’m not in KC so I’m on the periphery of all negative stuff being posted about him. Good luck Eric and thanks for your effort!

( I used to wonder if he was really Justin Houston trolling us, but then I realized that Houston actually went to college, so that theory got flushed ) 20 years from now, when the Dynasty book has been written and published, we just might get that answer along with the Mystery of Dorsey. |

Unreal how bad they must want him gone. Look at the cost they are willing to incur for him to just go away.

It isn't difficult to imagine the distraction he created every day. By day. What is the message you're sending to the other 52? I love EB, but damn. FAX |

Makes me feel old.
That said, what a damn rush to watch him torpedo in low before the block and blow someone up. Good Luck in your future endeavors. |

Sad to see him go, have a lot of memories attached to his time in KC. Everything from the draft to him beating cancer and being back on the field within months. Sadly had to happen though. Good luck Eric.

I get it.
But this one bums me out. Outside of the Mahomes pick, I was never so amped for a draft pick as I was for Berry. He was quiet. When healthy, he was one that did his talking with his pads. I think that’s what made him so unique in this age of cameras in their face and immediate social media transparency. He kept his mouth shut and he just did his job... I really hope we find the next Eric Berry in the draft this year...But I know we won’t. Good luck #29. |
