When can we cut Norwell? A very disappointing season for him.

They actually do have an out clause on his contract after 2019 that leaves them with 9 mil in dead cap, but saves them around 36 million over 2020-2022. 

I'm actually really interested to see if he can step up his play as the season wears on despite having scrubs lined up to his left from here on out. 
His play prior to this signing was so much better that I still wonder if he'll come around and earn some of that guaranteed money.

I'm not ready to get rid of Norwell just yet.
He hasn't been great but he hasn't been terrible every game. He also came to a new team, dealt with an injury early, and has had to deal with whoever is at LT screwing up too.
Combine it with our QB and run game problems (which aren't exactly stemmed from poor OL play).


On the same note... OL's go from being elite to trash in a single season sometimes (Dallas and Oakland come to mind)... so not crazy to think his play could have dropped off a bit.
