Two Falcons Released from NFL Training Camps: Update Mruczkowski retires

Two Falcons got their release recently from NFL training camps.

First, Scott Mruczkowski was released after 7 years in the NFL with the Chargers.  He was cut by the Chargers a week or so ago and hooked on with the Panthers but then got was cut by them a few days later.  Certainly, 7 years in the NFL is an accomplishment for any football player.  There's obviously a chance he could get picked up again, but if he doesn't, it was a good run.

Second, Kamar Jorden was cut by the Vikings.  He broke his hand before things got too far, which obviously makes it difficult to show much.

Korey Lichtensteiger is trying to make his way back onto the Redskins after a serious leg injury last season.  He is on the roster, but did not play in the game against Indy Saturday.

Shaun Suisham is Pittsburgh's kicker.

Update:

Mruczkowski:  Corrected for 7 NFL seasons.

Also, Mruczkowski has apparently announced his retirement, saying his "heart wasn't in it."
