Two pieces from the article:

 

"We sat down and he told me 'The fact of the matter is we're going to have to release you'," Williams told Molly Grantham during a sit down conversation. "I said you know, 'Why?' and he said, 'because we don't run the ball enough. Just like you said back before the season started, we don't run the ball enough to keep you and both [Jonathan Stewart], so we're going to release you'."
 

"I don't feel bitter at all. [stewart] had the hot hand at the end of the season. He's a great running back, obviously, uh, I don't feel bitter at all. It's a business," Williams said. "And that business comes back and reminds us year after year - whether it be Steve Smith, whether it be Jordan Gross, whether it be myself - it's going to happen to every guy in that locker room, so it doesn't bother me at all."

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By CRA · Posted

      the insane leash and the defense of him is about as unique as Bryce is himself.  One of one.  170 yards, maybe a TD, maybe a turnover.  That's Bryce Young.  The good day variant.

      I don’t have the time to prove this and go through all-22 and whatever (and I’m doubtful I even could without knowing the plays) but I’m convinced that Canales’ passing scheme with Bryce is one read and check down, and that it’s a tedford style early air raid system. Its quick because it relies on presnap reads and not asking the qb to do too much. It’s not productive at the nfl lvl because it only works with huge talent differentials. You could also run it with basically any nfl qb. Most of the receiving options on the field are just decoys/tiring out defenders. this is why the panthers offense is so anemic. Kirk cousins here is talking about changes in approach and he talks about going from something similar (basically just reading safeties) to what teams are doing since mcvay came along. https://x.com/rapsheet/status/2001477747852341324?s=46 This doesn’t prove my suspicion necessarily and obviously Canales doesn’t really come from a prolific offensive background but I guarantee you Bryce isn’t doing what Kirk is talking about in the second half of this.
