MONDAY, MONDAY TRENCHES
No cute lines here, let's get in The Trenches.
---Defensive end Hugh Douglas has been released by the Jaguars. The former Jet and Eagle had signed with Jacksonville before the 2003 season and was expected to be a key part of their defense. But Douglas struggled in 2003 and didn't have a great training camp this year. However, I won't shed a tear if the Seahawks decide to go after him. After all, you can't have enough depth.
---So Deion Sanders is returning to the National Football League to play for the Baltimore Ravens. Must be the money, eh?
---The Vikings have released Brock Lesnar, who was a former WWE superstar. Here comes the pain? More like, here comes the pink slip! In other Vikings news, head coach Mike Tice hates rookie kickers. Oh, and he's a horrible singer.
And in Seahawks news...
---Defensive end Grant Wistrom has passed his physical and is able to practice with the team.
---Seneca Wallace, you're the #3 quarterback. Brock Huard has been placed on injured reserve by the 'Hawks, because of back problems.
The 'Hawks play the Vikings Thursday night in Seattle in their final preseason game. Left tackle Walter Jones should join the 'Hawks this weekend or next Monday at the very latest.
We're less than 2 weeks from the season opener in New Orleans. I can't wait.
