Edgerrin James asked the
Cardinals to release him after he was benched in
favor of Tim Hightower in Week 9, according to
Profootballtalk.com.
Arizona refused, opting to keep Edge as a third
stringer for insurance behind Hightower and J.J.
Arrington. James' $5M salary for 2008 is guaranteed, so
there was no reason for Arizona to give him to another
team. At the time Joseph Addai was struggling in
Indianapolis and the Colts could have given their old
friend a long look. Denver also could've put in a
waiver claim.
