Why did we ever acquire him to begin with. 

Of the vet post-Cam QB moves we've made this is the one I have the least issue with by far. We didn't give up much and the Browns picked up the majority of the salary cap tab. It was worth the shot we took IMO. No, it didn't work out but a low value trade and cap hit for Baker Mayfield was and always will be a better roll of the dice than paying Teddy like a legit starter or trading real assets to acquire Darnold and immediately doubling down on that move by picking up his 5th year option.

Eh I guess that’s fair. But it just proved the systemic problems even more.

In any case, there's no leverage since the trade deadline passed. We'd just be holding on to him to be petty at this point. We're not gonna play him or resign him, might as well let him go.

The original point of my comment was in reference to 49ers calling us and asking us to let him go as an IOU. In that case would have leverage.
