Gaither has always been known to be a bit of a slacker and not the hardest worker in practice. A few years ago he was a very good tackle for the Ravens, but they grew tired of his work habits and constant "injuries".
He's kind of like Haynesworth, a player with natural talent to play well, but a guy who doesn't really love the game and all that comes with it.
I can't really fault KC for cutting a guy who has a known history of being really lazy and missing lots of practice time. Is he better than Richardson, yes - when he wants to be. This season is a waste anyway, so move on and don't reward a non-team player that might have a negative effect on Hudson or some other younger guys.
