As NFL teams finalize their rosters in preparation for the 2007 season, Onion Sports lists the most notable cuts:
Larry Johnson: Coach Herm Edwards considered Johnson to be somewhat of a ball-hog
Ahman Green: With his ability to rack up a ton of offensive yards, score touchdowns, and be a game-changing player, Green was cut from the Texans for not really understanding the team concept
Leon Joe: Honestly, this Bears linebacker just smelled really, really bad
Rex Tucker, Lions: Well, the Lions had to cut someone, right? And if the cruel cosmic wheel of fate had to land on Rex Tucker, then who are we to look for a reason?
Blitz: The Seahawks anthropomorphic bird mascot showed up to camp 50 pounds overweight and with his mask on backwards
Joe Porter: Saints cut the cornerback after implementing a new defensive scheme in which no one covers the wide receivers
Drew Henson: The Vikings announced it was part of their plan all along to cut Henson, as that is the only thing he has ever known
Kevan Barlow: New Steelers coach Mike Tomlin sent a clear message to the rest of his team by cutting the veteran Barlow and then beating him up a little after that
Randall Cunningham: Sheepish Eagles later released statement saying they had no idea how this Hall of Fame great snuck into camp
MacKenzie Hoambrecker: Not a bad kicker, but the 49ers only allow one player with a silly name; already had Tully Banta-Cain
Sean Mulcahy: This tight end was a hard worker, a team player, and a great locker-room presence that didn't deserve the stigma of being a Bengal
