How does a veteran NFL starting cornerback get cut from the Seahawks that need a new starter there, not even four months after signing? Before appearing even in a minicamp, let alone a game?
When the team takes four younger, cheaper defensive backs with more futures among its first eight picks in the draft.
Perrish Cox was one of eight players the Seahawks released on Tuesday, when they also announced the signing of defensive end David Bass. The other seven released by Seattle: tight end Chris Briggs, center Ross Burbank, defensive tackle Rodney Coe, running back George Farmer, receiver Jamel Johnson, kicker John Lunsford and running back Terrence Magee.
