Parcells' guy comes loose at FS

Originally posted by Silverand Blue from a sports forum:

Marcus Coleman was cut from the Texans yesterday primarily for cap reasons, but also because of some bad blood that might have resulted from his being benched for missing a meeting last December. Coleman is an ex-Jet drafted by Parcells in '96 and he's a former CB that has been playing free safety for several years. He has good coverage skills and is a fine tackler. He has 25 career interceptions. Parcells and Coleman share the same agent--the onmipresent Jimmy Sexton. As they say, you draft for talent and you acquire free agent for need. I think here is the affortable answer for the next two years. If he's signed, Coleman should thrive with the pass rush the Boys can hopefully generate all season.
