SAN FRANCISCO -- Struggling wide receiver Braylon Edwards was released by the San Francisco 49ers following surgery on his right knee earlier this season that limited his ability.
Edwards tweeted the news Tuesday, attributing the move to his injury, which "required more time to rehab and hasn't allowed me to re-sync with the offense."
The 49ers confirmed Edwards' release. "I wish the 49ers organization the best of luck during the playoffs," Edwards said in a statement on his web site. "I will be working hard this off season to strengthen my knee and prepare for the 2012 season. Thanks for your continued support and for being such loyal fans."
Terrell Owens back with the 49ers? Exploring the possibility was done out of pure speculation Tuesday after San Francisco released veteran wide receiver Braylon Edwards.
But, as it turns out, there is some genuine interest -- from T.O., that is. Owens, who has wanted to get back in the NFL all season, had former Bills teammate and current 49ers safety Donte Whitner give him a shoutout, via Twitter, that is sure to have San Francisco fans either rolling their eyes or pumping their fists.
"@DonteWhitner Let em kno if they need me, I'm ready homie!! I'm ready 2 take em deep!!" T.O. tweeted Wednesday.
To which Whitner responded: "@terrellowens I know u are! And I'm ready to Vouch for...and let everyone kno how GREAT of a teammate u were in buffalo!"
