The Green Bay Packers have released linebacker A.J. Hawke. Hawke played nine seasons in Green Bay, and is the team’s all-time leading tackler.
The Detroit Lions have cut running back Reggie Bush. Bush was signed to a four-year contract two years ago. He missed much of last season because of injuries, and lost his starting job to Joique Bell. The move frees up 1.7-million dollars in salary cap space.
