Roddy White has been released by the Atlanta Falcons with two seasons remaining on his current deal.

White, who is out of the country, declined to discuss the details of his release. He did relay this message to Falcons fans: "I love them. I enjoyed. And it was fun.''

In a text to ESPN's Josina Anderson, White said he wants to play in the NFL "another year or 2."

White was due to make $4.25 million in 2016 with a high salary cap figure of $6,137,500. He previously said he had no desire to take a paycut.

His release provides a cap savings of just $2,362,500 in 2016.

"Roddy is one of the greatest players to ever put on a Falcons uniform, and even more importantly he is a man of tremendous character that I and my entire family have profound personal affection and respect for," Falcons owner Arthur Blank said in a statement Wednesday.
