Congrats to former Michigan defensive back Morgan Trent. He made the cut and will be a member of the Cincinnati Bengals this year. He was a 6th round pick in the 2009 NFL draft. Other former Wolverines on the roster are Trent's former team-mate Leon Hall and NFL veteran Dhani Jones. Morgan is expected to play in nickel coverage packages and special teams.The NFL has denied his request to cover his orange tiger striped helmet with Buckeye stickers. To my friends at the WLA, I am just kidding.
Fellow 2009 NFL draft pick Terrance Taylor did not fare so well. Taylor was drafted in the 4th round by the Indianapolis Colts but was released during the final cuts before the NFL season begins this week. How stacked are the Colts this season to be able to afford to cut a 4th round draft pick before he ever plays a down?
Other former Michigan players looking for work following the final NFL training camp cuts include: Victor Hobson (Arizona Cardinals), Rueben Riley (Washington Redskins), Doug Dutch (Washington Redskins), and Amani Toomer (KC Chiefs).

I think as a player I'd rather play for Detroit then play in Cinci. What a mess that team has been for years. Hopefully he can keep himself out of jail.
