09/04/2010 - Allen Park, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Cornerback Dre' Bly was among the players released by the Detroit Lions on Saturday, as the team pared its roster to the 53-player NFL maximum.
Bly, an 11-year NFL veteran who returned to Detroit in the offseason after having previously played four years with the team (2003-06), could not withstand what has become a crowded cornerback rotation in the Motor City.
A second-round pick of the St. Louis Rams in 1999, Bly has previous experience with the Rams (1999-2002), Broncos (2007-08) and 49ers (2009).
Also released were defensive tackle Rob Callaway, linebacker Caleb Campbell, linebacker Vinny Ciurciu, wide receiver Brian Clark, defensive tackle Landon Cohen, running back DeDe Dorsey, guard Noah Franklin, center Dan Gerberry, kicker Steven Hauschka, cornerback Jonathan Hefney, tackle Jon Jansen, cornerback Eric King, tackle Cliff Louis, wide receiver Michael Moore, cornerback Paul Pratt, cornerback T.J. Rushing, safety Ko Simpson, wide receiver Tim Toone and cornerback Dante Wesley.
Notables among that group include Campbell, the West Point product originally drafted by the team in 2008 before being required to serve two years of military service; Jansen, an 11-year veteran who appeared in 11 games with the Lions last season; and Simpson, a five-game starter for Detroit a year ago.
The club also waived/injured defensive end Korey Bosworth (leg) on Saturday.
On Friday, the team released defensive tackle Jaron Baston.
Detroit will open its 2010 regular season slate next Sunday, when they travel to meet the NFC North rival Chicago Bears.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds
Super Bowl XLIII, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.Super Bowl XLIII is now set, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers will meet each other on February 1st in Tampa's Raymond James Stadium to battle it out for the coveted Lombardi Trophy. The game kicks off at 6:00pm ET on NBC with announcers Al Michaels and John Madden covering the on-field action. Super Bowl XLIII betting odds at online bookmaker MySportsbook.com have the Steelers listed as an early -6.5 against the spread favorite.Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds
Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.
The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.
The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.
Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
MySportsbook.com's Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds:
Pittsburgh Steelers -6.5 (-110), Over 46.5 (-110), -260 (Money line)
