After spending the past three years apart, the Cardinals and linebacker Daryl Washington weren’t going to reunite like lovers who had been separated by some silly misunderstanding.

But no one expected the relationship to end as suddenly as it did on Thursday morning, when the Cardinals announced via press release they had cut Washington. Included was a terse statement from the team.

"After meeting with Daryl Washington, we have collectively decided it is best to release Daryl and give him the opportunity to continue his career elsewhere."

Later in the day, Washington released his own statement to profootballtalk.
