I’m blogging from the iPhone. The NY Giants have released troubled wide receiver Plaxico Burress.
Stay tuned.

The St. Louis Rams have announced that they have released WR Torry Holt.
“The Rams will forever be grateful for the way Torry Holt represented the Rams on the field and in the community,” Owner/Chairman Chip Rosenbloom said. “He is an All-Pro in every sense of the word. Over the past 10 seasons Torry [...]

The St. Louis Rams have released former #1-overall pick Orlando Pace. The Rams tried to trade him or re-structure his contract, but it wasn’t happening.
The move saves the Rams roughly $6 million in cap space.

After cutting WR Terrell Owens, the Cowboys decided to keep it going. They have now released overrated safety Roy Williams.
Williams had been asking for his outright release for awhile and had been complaining that he didn’t fit Wade Phillips’ scheme. Teams that have a hole on their roster for safeties that [...]

The Dallas Cowboys have made a shocking move that will certainly send tremors throughout the NFL and probably the entire universe. They have cut Brad Johnson.
Ok, so maybe it’s not that big of a deal and everyone saw it coming. The Cowboys will save close to $2 million in cap space according to [...]

Laveranues Coles has been cut by the New York Jets.
Coles was set to earn $6 million this year and wanted a long-term deal. But they couldn’t come to an agreement and now he’s on the street.
“We didn’t leave on bad terms,” Coles said. “It’s not out of the question that I could come back.”
“I [...]

The Rams chopped two players today, QB Trent Green and WR Drew Bennett.
Cutting Green saves the team $1.3 million in cap space. $30-million bust Drew Bennett has been a total waste of money and cutting him now only saves the team $50,000. Thanks, Drew.

The Carolina Panthers have released WR D.J. Hackett, G/T Jeremy Bridges and FB Nick Goings.
Jeremy Bridges was set to make more than a million dollars this year, and I guess he wasn’t worth it. D.J. Hackett was never really healthy for the Panthers and didn’t do much for them. Goings filled [...]

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have released LB’s Derrick Brooks and Cato June, WR’s Joey Galloway and Ike Hilliard, and RB Warrick Dunn.
Brooks has been the face of the franchise for more than 10 years, so they must really feel like he can’t run anymore. Hilliard is close to toast and apparently Joey Galloway is [...]

Bill Polian announced today that the Colts have released WR Marvin Harrison.
“We today have released Marvin Harrison because of salary cap considerations,” Polian said.
“Marvin let us know his preference was to be released. Both Jim Irsay and I felt very strongly that after Marvin’s long and dedicated service to the Colts, we would, in this [...]

The Washington Redskins have cleared $4.5 million in salary cap room by dumping LB Marcus Washington. He is 31 and now an unrestricted free agent.

February 17, 2009 by Micah Warren  

A day after cutting six players, the Denver Broncos have released overrated CB Dre Bly.
Bly is a corner who can make some plays, but gets burned wayyyy too much to be considered an upper echelon player. He has played 11 seasons in the NFL and will surely catch on with another team. [...]

February 17, 2009 by Micah Warren  

The New Orleans Saints have released RB Deuce McAllister.
McAllister turned 30 in December and is due $5.3 million this season. He had four years remaining on his contract but suffered major knee injuries in two of the last three years.
“Decisions like this are always very difficult ones to make,” Executive [...]

The Jaguars have released long-time RB Fred Taylor in an effort to get younger at the position.
Taylor finished his 11-year career with the Jags with 11,271 yards and 62 TD’s. He had 732 yards in 10 games last year.

February 11, 2009 by Micah Warren  

The Jacksonville Jaguars have released two free-agent acquisitions from a year ago. They have released WR Jerry Porter and CB Drayton Florence.
“In going through our personnel evaluations and roster analysis we are making decisions that we believe will help improve our team for the 2009 season and beyond,” said Jaguars general manager [...]

Not surprisingly, the Houston Texans have cut oft-injured RB Ahman Green. He was due to earn $4.8 million next year and was expendable due to the emergence of the John Deere Doritos Cool Ranch Rookie of the Year finalist Steve Slaton.

February 9, 2009 by Micah Warren  

The Browns have released former 49er and former U. of Miami QB Ken Dorsey. Dorsey might be a nice guy (and we don’t even know if that’s the case), but he stinks at football. He had a 47.3% completion rate last season in relief of Derek Anderson and Brady Quinn. That’s total [...]

The Giants have done some roster shuffling. They released Reuben Droughns, which would indicate that they are definitely keeping one or both of Brandon Jacobs and/or Derrick Ward (we think they only keep Jacobs). If they don’t keep either of those guys, that would leave Ahmad Bradshaw and Danny Ware as their only [...]

The Dallas Cowboys have announced that they will release Pacman Jones. The move will be made official on February 9th, the first day when teams can make waiver requests.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones even assigned him his own security guards to follow him around to make sure he didn’t get in any trouble. Didn’t happen. [...]

Sources close to OTR have told OTR that OTR will be no more. It’s just not the same anymore and it wouldn’t fair to our loyal readers to continue to just go through the motions. We did have a great run though. We broke the Asante Samuel signing. We were the [...]

The Raiders have waived 24-year old DeAngelo Hall. He’ll have to clear through waivers before he can sign with another team.
The Raiders paid Hall $8 million and gave up second and fifth-round draft picks. Well done, Raiders.

November 4, 2008 by Micah Warren  

Un-friggin’-believable. Adam Schefter reports that the Raiders could pull the plug on the DeAngelo Hall experiment in order to avoid paying him $16 million in injury-guaranteed bonuses.
They spent a second-round pick on Hall and will have paid him $8 million for eight games. At least they realize they screwed up.
Now, a league source has told [...]

After seven years in the NFL, the Bengals have cut RB Kenny Watson.
It is not known at this time if the move had anything to do with his Sarah Palin shrine in his locker.
Actually, it’s so they can activate WR Chris Henry. The Bengals just told Kenny Watson that it was more [...]

Rapist Jerramy Stevens has been activated for the Bucs. He is done serving his two-game suspension for violation of the league’s substance abuse policy.
To make room for the rapist, the Bucs cut former Titans second-round pick Ben Troupe.

Photo Caption: Ben Troupe makes a rare play.

A league source has told PFT that the Detroit Lions have cut Tatum Bell. We still can’t believe he lasted this long. As Charles Barkley would say, “he’s terrrrble.”

August 30, 2008 by Micah Warren  

Veteran Bengals right tackle was cut today for apparently refusing to take a pay cut. He was entering his 13th season and had already lost his starting job to Stacy Andrews (brother of the Eagles Shawn Andrews).
“They wanted me to take a pay cut,” he said. “I wouldn’t do it.”
Said Anderson, “I pretty much [...]

A league source has told PFT that the Bengals were trying to trady Rudi Johnson, but plan to cut him today instead. Apparently, they couldn’t get anything for him. No kidding?
But, this doesn’t mean you should take him off of your board for your fantasy draft this weekend. If he’s there really [...]

What in the hell happened to Andre Woodson? Remember when he was supposed to be an elite QB at Kentucky and worthy of a high draft pick? Well now, according to Adam Shefter of NFLN, the Giants plan to cut Woodson and backup journeyman Anthony Wright at the QB position.

August 19, 2008 by Perry  

The Atlanta Falcons have released veteran wide receiver Joe Horn into the wild.
Horn expressed interest in playing for the Cowboys and the Eagles last week, so we’ll see if either of those two teams bite.
Horn really hasn’t done anything the last three years, so don’t expect him to provide a spark for any team that [...]

The waiver wire is completely nuts right now. According to a major league source, the Detroit Tigers have placed Gary Sheffield on waivers.
Sheff sucks this year. He’s batting around .219 with only 10 homeruns. Kevin Cash (see post one below) has a better average than him.
Look for another team to claim him [...]
