The rumors of the Atlanta Falcons cutting Roddy White have been beat to death so I’m going to keep this short and sweet. While part of me wants to keep him around for another year, the other part of me want’s to see him and the team part ways.

It all boils down to what can he bring to the table as a 34-year-old receiver in 2016. White holds nearly all of the receiving records in Atlanta but you have to overlook those things when it comes to the state White is in right now.

Will he get cut? Who knows at this point but you can’t rule out the possibility. If the Falcons choose to cut him then you have to respect their decision. If they choose to keep him you have to do the exact same thing. There isn’t a wrong answer here.
