Football Betting Lines
09/04/2010 - Cincinnati, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Wide receiver Matt Jones and kicker Dave Rayner were among the players released by the Cincinnati Bengals on Saturday, as the team reduced its roster to the 53-man NFL limit.
Jones, a former first-round pick of the Jacksonville Jaguars who was attempting to revive his career in Cincinnati, fell victim to a numbers crunch at the wide receiver position. Jones had four catches for 54 yards in the 2010 preseason.
Rayner was part of a preseason kicking competition with Mike Nugent, but could not beat out the former Jet. Rayner was 6-of-8 on field goals in the preseason, but missed his only attempt beyond 40 yards.
Also released on Saturday were wide receiver Dezmon Briscoe, tight end Chase Coffman, defensive tackle Orien Harris, safety Kyries Hebert, tight end Darius Hill, linebacker Abdul Hodge, guard Otis Hudson, running back James Johnson, tackle Gabriel Manns, defensive tackle Clinton McDonald, safety Jeromy Miles, safety Rico Murray, wide receiver Maurice Purify (injury settlement), linebacker Vincent Rey, tackle Chris Rodgers, cornerback Johnny Sears, guard Isaac Sowells, fullback Joe Tronzo, fullback Fui Vakapuna (waived/injured) and safety Marvin White.
Cincinnati will open its regular season next Sunday, when it visits the New England Patriots.
