He got cut because he's not worth $5.5 mil but he still thinks he is.
Sure, injuries have slowed him but that's what happens to mid-30s WRs.

I still don't think Berrian is physical enough to get open in tough
spots when you really want your WR to fight to escape the defender and
find a seam (and then catch the ball). He does a good job of getting
open on outs and going upfield when the CB doesn't jam him, but he
doesn't break free quick enough in situations when Rex needs to unload
the ball quickly. By and large Moose still does a good job of this but
drops far too many "catchable" balls.
