Green and Bennett Cut By Rams

Not to be left out the St. Louis Rams have released some veteran players as well. Quarterback Trent Green and wide receiver Drew Bennett got the Axe on Wednesday.


The release of Green is expected to save the Rams about $1.3 million in salary cap space. The team saves a whopping $50,000 by cutting Bennett.

Bennett signed a six-year, $30 million deal two years ago after six seasons with the Titans. But he struggled in 2007 and broke his leg in the first quarter of this season's opener, missing the remainder of the season.

Trent Green, 38, is in his second stint with the team played in three games last season, completing 38 of 72 passes for 525 yards with no touchdowns and six interceptions. Green has a long history of injuries, specifically concussions which will likely end his career. One of such concussions came after Trent Green, who at the time was a Miami Dolphin, tried to cut block Houston Texans' Travis Johnson only to be left unconscious on the field from a knee to the head.
