In what world do any of you think we're actually going to be able to cut him by then? He's not going to pass the standard player's physical, it will be attributed (rightly or wrongly) to a football injury and we will NOT be able to cut him absent an injury settlement. Dude's money is effectively guaranteed for 2019 at that point.
Seriously - I'd love to get him cut but that !@#$ing guarantee in 2019 is going to hamstring us. We're not getting rid of him because he milked that !@#$ing injury for all it's worth.
"I can't really talk about it..." = his representation knew exactly how to make sure that salary gets paid in 2019. Dude's going under the knife and he's not going to be ready to pass a physical by the first week of March. Once that comes/goes, we be ****ed regarding Eric Berry.

Don't be stupid. Most NFL contracts are only guaranteed for injury as a result of playing football in an NFL game. Berry is a non-football injury. I highly doubt his contract guarantees. I'd actually be extremely surprised if it did. And, as far as your 3rd day concern goes, you cut that mother****er the 1st second of the new league year.
