The Cincinnati Bengals will release linebacker Odell Thurman today. The news was first reported by Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk, citing an unnamed league source, and has also been reported by Steve Wyche, citing Thurman's agent, on ESPN First Take.

Thurman is a talented player who was the Bengals' second-round pick out of Georgia in 2005 and started 15 games as a rookie. But he has had a long history of off-field problems, both with drugs and with the law, and hasn't played an NFL game since then.

The housecleaning continues. Hopefully this team will finally go out and land some high character guys who can play.

Those are in short supply these days.
