    Here's why he was cut:

    https://www.tmz.com/2021/12/15/damon-arnette-miami-dolphins-sign-gun-video/

    "The move is surprising -- because while Arnette, a former first-round pick, is talented, his off-field issues have certainly raised some concerns.

    The 25-year-old defensive back has been hit with 2 lawsuits in the past year -- with one alleging he injured a woman during a car crash in 2020.

    Of course, disturbing video of Arnette brandishing guns also surfaced in November -- and in the clip, the former Ohio State star can be heard making threats to somebody.

    "I swear to God I will kill you, n****," Arnette says in the footage. "On everything I love, I will kill you, n****. You talking crazy."

    Raiders general manager Mike Mayock said after releasing the corner that the video was "unacceptable."

    "We can not stand the video of Damon with a gun threatening to take a life," Mayock told reporters at the time ... "The bottom line; the Raiders will not tolerate this type of behavior."

    The Dolphins are clearly willing to give Arnette a second chance -- though it remains to be seen if he'll ever have the opportunity to be ultimately be elevated to the team's active roster."

    Coach Flo is the heir apparent to Marvin Lewis, apparently.

    They saw the video and thought, "This guy is worth a.... shot, he'll help round out the roster with his caliber of play and aim to make our defense even more deadly!"

    Yeah, I dunno why flores even bothers spouting the high character nonsense lol. This season alone. We paid X, traded for isaiah wilson, openly flirted with watson the whole off season and half of the regular season, and now this gem. This makes me wonder how much they hate noah more than anything else lol.

    Miami dodged a bullet. And I mean that quite literally.
