Ravens Release Steve Hauschka; Cundiff Signs
Via the WNST text service –
Ravens release kicker Steve Hauschka.
Damn, didn’t see that one coming. More as we hear it.
Update (11/18/09 11 AM) - WNST and Aaron Wilson are reporting “rumblings” that the new kicker will be Billy Cundiff. Cundiff was 6/6 for Cleveland in 2009. He did not play in the league in 2007 or 2008, after spending 2002-2005 in Dallas.
Update 11:15 AM – Reports are confirmed that the Ravens have signed Billy Cundiff.
And now, for an unscheduled version of “Lookalikes!”
For cryin’ out loud. Let’s hope the similarities end there.
LOL just a taint of sarcasm I hope.
Even better, facing Matt Stover the next game.
It’s actually not sarcasm. I know they aren’t happy with him, but I’m really surprised they released him. I thought at the most they would bring somebody else on and let Hausch keep doing kickoffs, at least for a few weeks.
No no, it’d only be a matter of time before he would’ve surprised us with a bad kickoff to the left. I’m happy they booted him.
