“This afternoon I met with Dwayne and informed him that we would be releasing him,” Head Coach Rivera wrote in a statement. “I told him I believe it would benefit both parties if we go our separate ways. We want to thank Dwayne for his contributions these last two seasons and wish him well moving forward.”
The 23-year-old athlete also released a statement after he was waived from the team:
“My time with the WFT has unfortunately come to an end. I thank he team & fans for the opportunity to play for the team I grew up rooting for. I take full responsibility for not meeting the standards of a NFL QB & will become a better man & better player because of this experience.”
