Saints cut Matt Tennant

Mike Triplett ‏@TripTP
Source confirms that #Saints have released C/G Matt Tennant. One of the day's surprises.

Surprising indeed.

And that means Eric Olsen makes #Saints roster as backup C/G, source confirms. Mild surprise but Olsen a very good young lineman.

Didn't see that one coming at all.

I was high on this kid... oh well. The opportunity was there, he just didn't seize it.

I'd heard he was a decent center, but he wasn't very good at guard. We needed a back-up that could play all 3 interior spots. Apparently DLP could and now Olsen can as well

Holy ****! wow!

Dang. They keep the players they like drafted or not. Can't argue with their results.

Canfield did NOT make 53 .. Saints to release
Full 53 @8:00p

Wow, especially after they were talking about him being a starter not so long ago

We always yo-yo our 3rd QB with #53 on the final and PS roster-- check last year's transactions- every week Tanner and Canfield were cut and signed

Now he's with the Patriots.
