On Friday, the Philadelphia Eagles dealt Matt Barkley to the Arizona Cardinals, possibly clearing the way for Tim Tebow assuming the role as the team's No. 3 quarterback on the depth chart. However, one day later, the Eagles have released Tebow, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. Was this Tebow's last chance at making it in the NFL? Maybe. But then again, you never want to count him out. 

According to Pro Football Talk, the Cincinnati Bengals cut Devon Still. Last year, the Bengals parted ways with Still, but kept the defensive tackle on the practice squad to help him with the treatment costs for his young daughter, Leah, who was diagnosed with stage 4 Neuroblastoma cancer. Even though getting cut will be a tough pill for Devon to swallow, there is a silver lining. 

Important to know, because #Bengals kept Still on last year, he and Leah now have 5 years of NFL health insurance regardless of NFL status.
