The Dallas Cowboys released cornerback Terence Newman, sources said Tuesday according to Todd Archer and Calvin Watkins of ESPNDallas.com. Newman was scheduled to count $8.016 million against the salary cap in 2012 and by cutting him the Cowboys have created either $4 million or $6 million in space to sign free agents depending on how they designate the roster move. Owner and general manager Jerry Jones noted a drop in play late last season for Newman, the team's first-round pick in 2003, despite the fact that he tied for the team lead with four interceptions and 10 pass breakups.

I am like most all Cowboy fans.. Glad he is gone. But.... I would like to thank him for several good years of service though. Class act, and when healthy and younger he was a damn good corner for us. I wish him well..
Hopefully we can land Carr or Finnegan to take his spot. Cause having Scandrick and Jenkins as the starting CB's is a scary thought.
