The team surprisingly waived Dixon, who appeared in 16 games with 16 tackles and 1.5 sacks in 2011, on 8/31 and signed DT Isaako Aaitui from the Miami Dolphins but today released Aaitui and resigned Dixon

Confirmed that Marcus Dixon is back. Makes zero sense to me why he was cut in first place #nyj
