Brandon Browner, who tweeted goodbye, to be cut March 9, website reports

New Orleans Saints cornerback Brandon Browner's release has essentially seemed like a matter of time. He tweeted his goodbyes on Feb. 5, but he and the franchise have been silent since that point.

Browner posted a series of messages on social media Friday morning thanking New Orleans and referring to his tenure in the past tense.

According to Pro Football Talk, Browner will be cut on March 9, the first day of the new league year. The 2016 salary cap will be in effect at that point, giving the Saints the necessary space to absorb the salary cap hit.
