New Orleans Saints release WR Copper

Posted by Mike Triplett, The Times-Picayune October 14, 2008 6:01PM

The Saints released receiver Terrance Copper, one of their top special teams contributors over the past three years, and re-signed defensive end Jeff Charleston.
The move could wind up being temporary. The Saints have been shuffling several veterans on and off the roster this year. But they are a bit overcrowded at the receiver position, with Marques Colston and David Patten expected to return from injuries in the coming weeks.

Charleston originally signed with the Saints last week, but he was released on Saturday to make room for quarterback Joey Harrington.

Copper, 26, has been with the Saints since he was claimed off waivers at the start of the 2006 season. He has 38 receptions with the Saints for 511 yards and five touchdowns.
