FB Wanamaker and S Wright amongst Merchantmen cuts
The Maassluis Merchantmen today released 5 players to set their pre-season roster for the upcoming IHOF Season. Fullback Damien Wanamaker and Safety Blaine Wright were the most prominent names. Quarterback Evan Kelley and wide receivers Gage Greer and Micah Henderson were also released.

Damien Wanamaker was selected in the 4th round of the 2097 draft by the Merchantmen. In 2098 and then from 2100 through last season he was the starting fullback for the Merchantmen. His primary goal was to support the offensive line on running plays. He's been released after 8 seasons on roster, having played in 96 regular season games and 2 playoffs games last season.

Safety Blaine Wright was a seventh round pick for the Merchantmen in 2098. After 2 seasons of waiting in the wings, He became a member of the active roster in 2100 and the last 3 seasons was a starter. Last off-season Wright held out for a better contract, but retracted his desire before pre-season began. After not getting an improved deal in the more recent off-season, Wright decided to hold out again and this time the Merchantmen prefer to go with the other players on roster and cut Wright. His action for the Merchantmen thereby ends after 80 regular season games and both playoffs games last season.

Wide receiver Gage Greer was an undrafted rookie signing in 2102, but in 3 seasons has bene activated only once. With the recent arrival of 4 rookie wide receivers, Greer's odds to make the roster again were slim and the Merchantmen have decided to not wait until mid-pre-season to make a decision on Greer.

Quarterback Evan Kelley was one of four 7th round draft picks in the recently finished 2105 draft, while wide receiver Micah Henderson joined the Merchantmen as an undrafted rookie free agent. Neither of them made a good impression in training camp and being stuck in the two deepest groups on the team, they were the first players cut.
