Tyler Patmon has a suit. He may need it for his next job interview.

According to Todd Archer of ESPN.com, the Cowboys cut their one-time nickel cornerback.

While other players have been released for reasons as simple as not wearing a suit on team planes, Patmon’s was apparently the traditional performance-related variety.

He began the year as their nickel after Orlando Scandrick was lost for the year, but lost that job after five weeks. They gave it back to him after three weeks, but he lost it after last week.

“We just felt like that was the best move for our team right now going forward, and we’re going to work through what the substitution is going to be on the back end for this ballgame,” coach Jason Garrett said. “But it was a move that’s been made. He’s been a good player for us and has a chance to be a good player in this league. We just felt like it was the best move for our team right now.”

Patmon has shown to be a decent young player, and will likely find another chance to prove himself reliable. But between his up-and-down job status and his training camp jawing with teammate Dez Bryant (they later hugged it out), he’s made headlines for all the wrong reasons this year.
