08/18/2010 - Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New England Patriots have reached an injury settlement with veteran wide receiver Torry Holt.
The Boston Herald reported Wednesday evening that Holt and the team worked out a deal where the Patriots will grant him his release, enabling the 11-year pro to become a free agent.
Sources including the National Football Post report that Holt, who was placed on injured reserve on Sunday with a knee injury that will require surgery, was due $1.15 million base salary and was given a $50,000 signing bonus when New England brought him in back in April.
This may mark the end of the road for Holt, who is 34 years old. The 6-foot, 200-pounder played in 15 games for the Jaguars last season, catching a career-low 51 passes for 722 yards.
The seven-time Pro Bowl selection is most notably known for his illustrious 10-year stint with the St. Louis Rams. The North Carolina State product has amassed 13,382 yards and 74 touchdowns during his career and ranks 11th all- time with 920 receptions.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
