After the Green Bay Packers released Martellus Bennett with the designation that he failed to disclose a medical condition, the Packers have filed paperwork to attempt to collect the unamortized portion of Bennett's signing bonus.

The Packers could have tried to get back the entire signing bonus, but considering Bennett played seven games, the stronger case would apply to the remaining $4.2 million that's prorated over the final two years of the deal. The case is expected to be heard by an arbitrator and would need to be settled before next season because of the salary-cap ramifications.

DARN! They're only going after the last 2 years of the signing bonus? I was hoping we could get 2.5 years of the signing bonus money back... so Bennett unfairly is getting half a year (or all a year depending on how you look at it)... assuming he's guilty that is.

More evidence of incompetence among the Packers medical staff.

Nothing new under the sun.

Bennett quit in The Packers!
Soon as Aaron went down!

Good riddance to him!

The Packers can get back some if the money, fine, if not then who cares?

The guy turned out to be a real tool in the end.
Not a TEAM player at all!
I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!
