Criner and Staff Waive Three,
Send Two Others to Injured Reserve; Final Cutdown Next
Sunday
Las Vegas Outlaws Head Coach Jim Criner complied with
the XFL’s roster mandate of 55 active players by 9:00
a.m. PT Monday by waiving three individuals and placing
two others on the league’s Reserve – Injured list.
Those waived today include two former Arizona State
players, DE Vince Amey and K/P Marcus Williams. Also
waived is former Florida State and Washington Redskins
DE Sterling Palmer. The Outlaws placed two players –
QB Chuck Clements and RB Tyrone Edwards – on the
league’s Reserve – Injured list, as both are
hampered by shoulder sprains.
The Outlaws will practice in pads today and Tuesday at
the Sam Boyd Stadium practice fields from 11:30 a.m. -
1:30 p.m., with Wednesday’s two-hour session beginning
at 9:00 a.m. On Thursday, the Outlaws begin practice at
12:30 p.m. and run until 2:00 in preparation for
Friday’s open scrimmage against the San Francisco
Demons. The scrimmage is currently slated for 5:00 p.m.
at Sam Boyd, but could be moved due to weather and field
conditions.
The Outlaws and the other seven XFL squads cut down to
the final 45-man roster (38 active/7 practice squad) on
