Matt Hasselbeck has said that he is "still in shock" after being cut by the Tennessee Titans last week.
The quarterback, who has since joined the Indianapolis Colts, learnt that he was to be released while on holiday in the Bahamas.
The 37-year-old told The Tennessean: "I'm still in shock a little bit. It happened so fast. I thought it was a possibility, but when I left for vacation I definitely didn't think I would come back as not a member of the Titans.
"It just feels weird to not be a member of the family anymore, and I just had a lot of pride for putting the foundation for [head coach Mike] Munchak's first year, and now not to be a part of it, it is disappointing more than anything else.
"The only 'Hmmm' thing I ever had really is when [Ryan] Fitzpatrick's deal, hours later, was a half-million more than I was ever offered. Maybe that just meant they had more wiggle room and we never got to that point, I don't know."
Hasselbeck had spent two seasons with the Titans, spending most of the 2012 campaign as backup to Jake Locker.
