Saints Cut Ealy, Kapanui

As expected, the New Orleans Saints have parted ways with receiver Biren Ealy and tight end Kolo Kapanui. The team announced the move on Tuesday. The release made no reference to the likely catalyst for the move -- the recent arrests of Ealy and Kapanui for various charges arising from their allegedly lewd words and conduct after a woman told them to stop urinating in public at 1:00 a.m. local time on Sunday. The Saints replaced Ealy and Kapanui by signing three undrafted free agents: running back Herb Donaldson, offensive tackle Augustus Parrish, and receiver Chris Vaughn. Donaldson rushed for 1,784 yards last season at Western Illinois of the NCAA’s FCS. Parrish played at Kent State of the MAC, and Vaughn started his career at Notre Dame and later transferred to Louisville.
