Broncos Release Punter Ernster After One Game

Paul Ernster's return to the Denver Broncos lasted just one week. He was waived Wednesday after a poor showing at San Diego on Monday night.

Ernster had been re-signed following the release of Todd Sauerbrun, who coach Mike Shanahan said had gotten belligerent toward Denver police after leaving a restaurant earlier this month.

Ernster, the Broncos' punter last season, booted a 17-yarder on his first attempt Monday night, setting up a Chargers touchdown. After redeeming himself with a 59-yarder that Andre Hall downed at the 1, Ernster followed with a 33-yarder that led to a San Diego field goal.

Damn, poor punters, QB's can have a bad day and just get hammered by the media for a day or two, punters, you could be released for 1 or 2 bad punts.

it's not like there's not a ton to choose from.. only one per team and lots of colleges, so there should be lots to pick

playing only one game and being released, that's gotta be a record.

Is there any doubt that Chris Hanson has the sweetest punting gig in the NFL right now? Didn't he only put once when the Pats stomped the Bills?

Speaking of the Bills, Brian Moorman pwns.
