The Cincinnati Bengals released receiver Michael Westbrook on Wednesday night, ending his short and unhappy stay with the NFL's worst team.
Westbrook, 30, was one of the Bengals' top offseason acquisitions, along with former Washington Redskins teammate Gus Frerotte. The two hoped that by reuniting in Cincinnati, they could end the Bengals' run of bad seasons.
Instead, Frerotte lost the starting quarterback job after only three games and Westbrook never made much of an impact on an offense that has gone through three starting quarterbacks.
