The Green Bay Packers released veteran cornerback Jaire Alexander on Monday, and one quote from team president Mark Murphy perfectly summed up why they made that decision.

Murphy spoke to the media Monday and called Alexander an “elite talent” who had been a great player for the Packers. However, he suggested the Packers would be able to move on without Alexander, because the cornerback’s history of injuries has meant that the team has already been playing without him for a majority of their games.

“The reality is, for the last four years (with) Jaire, it’s about half of the games he’s been able to play, so we’ve kind of been used to it,” Murphy said.
