Last week it was announced that the Patriots had cut veteran cornerback Shawn Springs. I know he didn't do much last year (39 tackles and one interception in 13 games), but I was still surprised, since the Patriots still seem to be weak there. Today things started to become clearer, as a report was released stating that Springs had failed a physical prior to being released.
Belichick also stated that he wanted to get younger at the CB position, and making way for first-round draft pick Devin McCourty is a great way to start. Springs has not decided if he is going to retire, but says that he is eying a job as an ESPN analyst.
