METAIRIE, La. (AP)—Injured running back Lynell Hamilton (notes) has been cut by the New Orleans Saints.
Hamilton, a second-year player, first signed with the Saints as a free agent following the 2008 NFL draft. He spent nearly all of his rookie season on the club’s practice squad before playing an expanded role in the 2009 season, playing in nine games with one start and rushing for 125 yards and two touchdowns. Hamilton was also a key special teams player.

Hamilton, 25, suffered a torn ACL during a combined practice in New England earlier this week.

Bushleague. I expect more from the Saints than that. Why not put him on IR?
