More NFL Huskers released

Maybe a mind-break from the Maine game.... but this ain't happiness either.

There were, IMO, a few surprises on cut downs today.

Texans S Jammal Lord - he's still a project so don't be surprised if he's added to the practice squad.

Giants LB TJ Hollowell - A bit surprising considering the Giants coaches were reportedly very high on TJ- though, he was on the practice squad last year too. there was a report prior to cuts that the Giants were going to release a couple players they were high on, in hopes that they could re-sign them to the p'squad before any other teams steal them away.

Chargers DT Ryon Bingham - SDBoltReport.com seemed high on him but I saw him in a couple preseason games and he seemed very ineffective to say the least and barely challenged the olinmen. but as with the others- possibly a practice squader?

Cardinals TE Aaron Golliday - also surprising since he started some preseaon games at TE-- as well as WR (go figure). yet another practice squad guy?

Rams DT John Parrella - anyone need a veteran leader on the defensive line? It would be sad to see his career end this way so hopefully he'll sign with someone and hold off retirement for at least 1 more season...

Raiders LB Jay Foreman - He didn't do much in preseason but I don't think he even started any games- IMO its still a surprising cut though. He'll likely get picked up by another team eventually.

Jacksonville DE Benard Thomas - only surprise here is that it didn't happen a couple days ago. Jag fans think he'll be picked up on the practice squad.

 
And I still haven't gotten over there! Damn stats and my love of crunching them!

edit: Holy crap, Griffin and Mauck got cut...I was not expecting that.

Rams DT John Parrella was a good one. Hell I rememeber lining up against him in Jr High! He played at Mission Jr High while I went to Logan Fontenelle. Sad to see him go...Makes me feel old now! LMAO

 
Updates....

Lord, Bingham and Hollowell were all added to their teams' practice squads today.

Benard Thomas was picked up by the Falcons.

No word (YET) on Parrella, Golliday, or Foreman.

Also, the Bears signed a couple CBs off waivers so Jerrell Pippens was cut. He may also be re-signed to the p'squad if he is not taken off waivers by another team.
