Beanie Wells: Released By Arizona

The Cardinals have released Wells, the Arizona Republic reports.

Wells, who played in eight games for Arizona last season, recording 88 carries for 234 yards and five touchdowns, has had trouble staying healthy during his four-year NFL career. At age 24, the former first-rounder is sure to get a chance to bounce back with another team. There's quite a few recognizable names in the free-agent running back pool, however, so at first glance, there's no obvious frontrunner to land Wells.
