I was generalizing to make a point but Schwartz only played in 6 games. Playing in 1/3 of the games doesn't equate to playing up to your contract regardless of price. Fish missed the most important game of the year no matter the reason. Veach has shown that the past is just that, the past. Schwartz's ironman streak didn't buy him an extra year of "give him a chance and see what happens" like it did sometimes in the past. Veach is showing a cold-bloodedness that the Pats used to show in their heyday when every year they cut someone that made the rest of the league go "wtf".
