The Facts:
The Raiders had all but parted ways with Collins on Sunday night until the NFL bought them some time to reconsider the quarterback's future with the club. Team officials thought they would be forced to let Collins go after the NFL and its union broke off talks earlier in the day, failing to agree upon an elevated cap number that would have allowed teams to keep certain high-priced veterans.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The team had been waiting for word on negotiations before making a final decision on Collins' future with the organization. They announced his release only to have the league announce the start of free agency was being bumped back to Thursday. ... While his future still depends on the outcome of the labor negotiations, it appears Collins will remain a Raider at least until the new deadline.
