This is the time of year when surprise cuts litter the NFL transaction wire and big name players hit the open market as teams look to save money by cutting ties with larger cap hits. On Wednesday morning, it was reported that veteran wide receiver Robert Woods had been released by the Tennessee Titans, making Woods a free agent free to sign with any team starting on March 15th.
Woods is a ten-year NFL veteran, who 49ers fans know well after spending five seasons with the Los Angeles Rams. While Woods was in the NFC West, he posted per season averages of 74 receptions, 925 yards, and 5 touchdowns, playing a major role on a Rams' offense that was dynamic during much of that stretch.
