BENGALS CUT WILLIE ANDERSON
Posted by Michael David Smith on August 30, 2008, 3:51 p.m.
We reported this afternoon that the Cincinnati Bengals asked tackle Willie Anderson to take a pay cut, and now we know Anderson’s answer.
“They wanted me to take a pay cut,” Anderson told The Cincinnati Enquirer. “I wouldn’t do it.”
So now Anderson is no longer a member of the Bengals, after 12 seasons and five Pro Bowls.
Anderson will become an unrestricted free agent, and presumably he’ll sign with someone soon. Although there are lingering injury issues, reliable veteran offensive tackles are always in demand.
Normally I get pissed at these "sign em hes available" threads, but this signing makes sooooooooooooooo much sense. Anderson at RT with Walker at left would shut Peters and his agent up, and make this line much more solid heading into the season (sorry Kirk Chambers)
