ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- The Detroit Lions have released tight end Andrew Quarless, the same day he was eligible to come off the NFLs suspended list.Quarless had been suspended due to a gun charge on July 4, 2015, and eventually entered a plea, being sentenced to a years probation for firing a gun in public in Miami Beach, Florida.He served the suspension during the Lions season-opening victory over Indianapolis and Sundays loss to Tennessee.The signing of Quarless was a big deal in Detroit initially because it appeared to go against general manager Bob Quinns policy of zero tolerance for domestic violence and gun issues -- something he made clear during his introductory press conference in January.Quinn had released a statement when the team signed Quarless in August, helping to explain his decision then.We have thoroughly researched the incident that caused the suspension and have talked at length with Andrew about this, Quinn said in the statement. Andrew has been forthright and honest about the situation and he has gone through the process within the legal system. As an organization we are comfortable with adding Andrew to the roster and look forward to seeing him compete for the rest of the preseason.Quarless did compete in the preseason, but with four tight ends already on the roster, the Lions apparently saw no reason to keep him after his suspension ended Monday.Quarless, who played college football at Penn State, was taken in the fifth round by the Green Bay Packers in 2010. He has 89 career catches for 940 yards and six touchdowns.Air Max Plus UK Outlet . -- Its been a long road back for Sean Bergenheim. Air Max Plus UK For Sale .

Not after beating No. 2 Notre Dame. Not after winning its 83rd straight game.Two days after narrowly earning the top-ranking in The Associated Press poll, the Huskies easily secured that title on the court with a comfortable 72-61 victory over the Fighting Irish on Wednesday night, their third straight victory over a ranked team.Coach Geno Auriemma said the Huskies (8-0) wouldnt know their winning streak stretched to more than two years if not for the media.I would think if this was the first time our program had ever been here, wed be acting a little bit different. You dont want to sound like you dont appreciate it -- but we did win 90 in a row, Auriemma said.Napheesa Collier scored 14 of her 20 points in the second half after playing just nine minutes in the first half because of foul trouble, Gabby Williams had 19 points, 12 rebounds and six assists, and Katie Lou Samuelson added 18 points to pace the Huskies.The Huskies trailed for about 2 minutes in late in the second quarter, but played with the lead most of the game as they controlled the inside, outscoring the Irish 42-30 in the paint and finishing with a 35-32 edge in rebounding.I was really disappointed in everything, execution, the inability to get the ball to Bri. Completely ineffective offensively, Notre Dame coach Muffet McGraw said.Brianna Turner led the Irish (8-1) with 16 points and 12 rebounds, and Lindsay Allen added 11 points.After Notre Dame tied it at 42 with just under 2 minutes left in the third quarter, the Huskies forced a pair of turnovers leading to layups by Samuelson and Williams. Collier added a pair of free throws to give Connecticut led 50-43 at the end of the third quarter.We knew they were going to hit us hard at times and we just had to hit back harder, Williams said.Auriemma said that stretch was the key.In that moment when it could have gone into the fourth quarter differently, I think it kept our confidence level high and may have put a damper on them, he said.The Huskiess stretched it to 65-54 on a 3-point play by Samuelson with 3:06 left to put the game away.ddddddddddddAuriemma said he wont get too excited about the victory.I know this is Dec. 7th and theres a long way to go between now and the end of the season, he said.BIG PICTUREUConn: The Huskies have beaten five ranked teams, including No. 2 Notre Dame and No. 3 Baylor, and have staked their claim as the clear No. 1.Notre Dame: The Irish faced adversity for the first time this season and couldnt respond as they struggled, going 3 of 14 on 3-pointers and making just 4 of 8 free throws.
