I BELIEVE that once a player goes on IR there is no benefit to the team in terms of cap space in cutting him. I defer to Crazy Canuck as the capology expert here on that issue; but if that is the case, there are no "losses to cut" by jettisoning Noble.

I said somewhere else that I was hoping he could come back and play because he's the kind of player you can't help rooting for. The football gods have not been kind to Noble since he came to Washington.
