The Pittsburgh Steelers released 4 players from their roster today, namely veteran RB Najeh Davenport. Effectively reducing the number of players down to 82.
Davenport served 2 years w/ the Steelers. During that time, he rushed for a total of 763yrds w/ 7 TD's and 33 receptions. Having his most productive season last year when he was forced into the lime-light after Willie Parker was sidelined w/ a fractured leg prior to the playoffs..... (Your presence will be missed.....)
The other 3 players dropped were: Jared Retkofsky (first yr long snapper), Mike Lorello (safety), & Doug Legursky (rookie OL)...
Note-All NFL teams must reduce their amount of players to 80 prior to training camp.

Interesting they let Davenport go although it shouldn't be surprising since they took Mendenhall.

Report Offensive CommentI'm surprised with Davenport getting let go. He is a good player, who is powerful and fast. Well, I guess he will just be good on a different team then.
