Dillon Released...But Not Done

Corey Dillon will be released by the New England Patriots, but he's reportedly not "retiring" from the NFL. Despite his earlier claims that he sought to retire so that in 5-10 years, he can still play with his kids, Corey Dillon will reportedly seek a new contract in a place (like Detroit or Green Bay) where he can be the primary back.

Good move, Corey.

Instead of staying in New England and banking $2.5M in salary to be a short yardage and goal line back for a perennial playoff contender, go to a (likely) non-playoff team and carry the ball 20-25 times for them as you approach your mid-30s.

I'm guessing Dillon didn't score too highly on the Wonderlic test.
