Rams release leading tackler Tinoisamoa
By Sports Network

The St. Louis Rams have released linebacker Pisa Tinoisamoa, the team's leading tackler last season.

Tinoisamoa made 135 tackles, including 88 solo, last season. He also notched three sacks.

"This was a difficult decision based on a lot of factors," said first-year Rams head coach Steve Spagnuolo. "I have a great deal of respect for Pisa and wish him all of the best."

The Rams selected Tinoisamoa in the second round of the 2003 NFL Draft. In his first season, he became the first Rams rookie to lead the team in tackles when he made 121 stops.

After playing every game in his first three NFL seasons and leading the club in tackles each year, Tinoisamoa missed five games because of injury in 2006 and missed seven games in 2007.

The six-year veteran from Hawaii has 661 tackles, including 418 solo, with 10 sacks and seven interceptions in his career.

The story.

Had a productive year for the Rams last season.

Obligatory "bring him in for a look".

BBQ will fix that.

Pretty productive LB, and he is only 27. He would be a good addition because as I have said before, Vrabel and Thomas are only 1-2 year fixes at best.

I think he makes up for that with tenacity.

definitely worth a look. If he turns into something really good, one more reason to slam the clown RAMS fans here.
