Here at Cincy Jungle we have precisely three posts related to practice squad cornerback Walter McFadden (when he signed, an update with one practice squad spot open and another update when that practice squad was filled). Now here's a fourth.

The Cincinnati Bengals have announced that cornerback Walter McFadden has been released from the team's practice squad on Tuesday.

McFadden's release brings Cincinnati's practice squad count to seven, which likely means the spot will be filled at some point soon.

That's interesting

Usually there is a signing at the same time.

They did try out Bruce Davis

According to Joe Reedy of the Cincinnati Enquirer, the Bengals held their usual Tuesday tryouts for free agents (one of which included McFadden). The tryouts also included cornerback John Bowie, defensive tackles Lamar Divens, DeMario Pressley and Jarron Gilbert and linebackers Brandon Williams and Bruce Davis

Linebacker that was drafted round 3 in ’08 by the Steelers.
