As mentioned in our free agency updates and contract recap, anyone in the NFL can be cut at any time. As a result, trades are very uncommon other than around the draft so it came as much of a surprise when the news broke former Scarlet Knight star offensive tackle Jeremy Zuttah had been dealt to the San Francisco 49ers along with some draft pick swapping. They took advantage of a team in Baltimore who is over the salary cap and in desperate need of shedding contracts even if it is at a loss of talent.
Jeremy, an Edison native, is signed through 2018 and the rebuilding 49ers who cleaned house completely this time have been super active adding talent to their roster.
