2023 NFC Notable Cuts: 5 surprising players who were shown exit door ft. Will Grier

Colt McCoy is easily the most shocking NFC cut of 2023, given the circumstances.

The Arizona Cardinals thought he was expendable given his age and lack of success, but there is one problem to that: starter Kyler Murray is on the PUP list, meaning he is not playing the first four games.
