The Cincinnati Bengals released defensive tackle Devon Still on Saturday, according to multiple reports.

Still, whose 5-year-old daughter Leah is battling cancer, was kept on the practice roster last year as a show of support by the team.

However, with Saturday’s deadline to trim rosters to 53 players, the Bengals reportedly cut ties with Still as was iffy to make the team this summer.

Still re-signed with the Bengals in the offseason after not getting much attention as a free agent.

Leah’s cancer is currently in remission. According to the Cincinnati Enquirer, Still and his daughter have five years of NFL health insurance regardless of his status.
