Vernon has more than likely already cleared. Like I said, teams often put their entire rosters on waivers for the sake of masking their intentions. But in most cases those players will go unclaimed because it's obvious the team doesn't want to trade them and would just pull them back in the event of a claim.

In Vernon's case, he probably cleared because nobody wants that contract. It's unfortunate but he seems like a case of "alright, got my big deal, later guys..."
