Dortch released despite expectations; victim of fierce WR room competition.

Wide receiver Greg Dortch was released from the 53-man roster despite being expected to make the team. Dortch himself expressed surprise at his release. Holmes attributed the decision to fierce competition in the receiver room, stating 'We wanted to add as much competition as possible this whole offseason' and 'when you add as much competition as possible—I thought it was a fierce competition—it adds more discomfort, but it also entails harder decisions.' Dortch remains available on the practice squad.
