Score the explicit transaction mechanism: traded and released are different outcomes. The post assertion of an existing mutual agreement is not separately scored. Jev advisory reviewed: Fields inactive/IR sequence supports rest-of-season unavailable call. Later explicit release mechanism false: Chiefs trade is not release. Do not split broad parting-ways premise into another win.
