I just got a 120 Sports report that Jerome Simpson has been released. I think we can stick a fork in him.

At this point, we may as well laugh.

Glad they dropped this fool.

Never should have been re-signed...or hell signed in the first place.

More negative pub the team could have avoided. But didn't. Because they're still poorly run from the top down. :wallbang:

Cutting him was absolutely the correct decision. Honestly, it should have been done much earlier.

The only thing I will miss about Jerome is his first down signal after catching a ball that moved the chains.

I've been waiting for him to go for a long time now. However, some loved him for whatever reason. I don't think it was a horrible idea re-signing him simply for depth but it doesn't hurt us that he is gone. I would take CP, Greg and Jarius over him any day. He can cause trouble and jump around like an idiot for someone else now. Adios you're gross

Im sad to see him go, I know im in the minority here. He was our best, non packer, on the team. Wright isn't worthy of a 7th rounder. CP, as awesome as he is, isn't a great WR. For now at least, he will be though. Simpson was clutch, and about the only celebration I liked in the NFL, when he got the first down. No matter how hard he was hit. Does Theiland get his spot now, and what happens when the vikes dump Simpson?

Nope, I really like(d) Simpson. Which shows how bad our WR's have been.

Sad to see him be a dummy and, (subsequently) sad to see him go.

He was definitely a spark, but if he cannot keep out of trouble there's not really a reliable spot on a roster for someone like that.

Perhaps there was bold writing on the wall already and this was a 'don't care anymore' move, but it doesn't matter either way.

Idiotic to say the least by this fellow.
