Jeff Wilkins has retired from the NFL, the Rams announced on Friday. Wilkins was the Rams' kicker for the past 11 seasons. "Throughout my 11 years with the Rams, everybody in the organization has been fantastic -- from the top to the bottom," Wilkins said in a statement. "But my retirement is best for me, my family, and the Rams."

The Rams released Isaac Bruce on Thursday, according to ESPN.com. Bruce was cut by St. Louis last season but was re-signed for this season.
