Yes. See the Complete List of Free Agents thread.
Normally a player is only released early if he has a NFL contract offer as now Inman is a free agent and could sign tomorrow with any CFL team.
This is supposed to be a show of good faith. The Argos release the player early so that he can pursue NFL opportunities but he would give the CFL team first shot to have him back if things don't work out in the NFL.

He will be a large loss if he signs with the No Funners.
He's had workouts with Vikes, Charger and the Broncos. His workout with the Broncos was a few days ago. With Welker out with concussion symptoms and no time table to come back Inman could be an insurance policy.
Yeah, he couldn't play this season, it is an unfortunate loss nevertheless. He's had a few injury problems in his two years too, but if he was healthy he'd likely be above 1000 yards in each of those seasons. Hopefully with another year under his belt John Chiles can make replacing Inman easier.
In theory yes.This is supposed to be a show of good faith. The Argos release the player early so that he can pursue NFL opportunities but he would give the CFL team first shot to have him back if things don't work out in the NFL.

People were upset when Kuale was released early and then signed with MTL but I wasn't. He signed well after free agency began. If he returns I assume he will return as an Argo, much like Arceneaux and Vega did with their respected clubs.

Looks like Inman to San Diego: http://www.sportsnet.ca/football/cfl...with-chargers/
IIRC, Calgary signed McCoy to back up Dave Dickenson in 1999 after Henry Burris suffered a season-ending injury. McCoy had never played in the CFL before but seemed to pick up the Canadian game quickly. After that one season, he was offered an assistant coaching position in the NFL, I believe, and the rest is history.

He's like the Milanovich of the NFL. From backup to a coach in seconds. Surprisingly, Milanovic played in CGY too.
