Jon Dorenbos: Released by Saints

Dorenbos (illness) was released by the Saints on Saturday, freelance NFL reporter Adam Caplan reports.

The Saints released Dorenbos with an NFI designation. The 37-year-old's season, and likely his career, is over as he is set to undergo open-heart surgery after suffering an aortic aneurysm. New Orleans signed Zach Wood to be its long snapper.
