"Associated Press Posted: 14 hours ago IRVING, Texas (AP) - Drew Henson was released by the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday, a day after coach Bill Parcells said the quarterback wouldn't be on the roster this season. Parcells wouldn't elaborate Wednesday when asked if the Cowboys were trying to trade Henson. If that was the case, they weren't able to find any takers. Henson started only one game in Dallas, filling in for the injured Vinny Testaverde on Thanksgiving Day 2004 before Testaverde took over after halftime. Parcells said Wednesday that he "just didn't see enough" from Henson over the past three years. "I don't keep players that I don't think can play for us," Parcells said. The Cowboys on Thursday also signed rookie free agent receiver Damarius Bilbo, who was recently released by the Arizona Cardinals. Henson spent three seasons playing baseball in the New York Yankees' organization when the Cowboys acquired him from the Houston Texans in March 2003 for a third-round pick. The Texans, already with David Carr at quarterback, had Henson's rights after drafting him in the sixth round in 2002. The Cowboys gave Henson an eight-year deal with a guaranteed $3.5 million, the most ever for a sixth-round pick. The final four years of the contract were voidable. About $3 million of Henson's contract will count against Dallas' salary cap this year. "
