The Dallas Cowboys are releasing Kyle Orton after their backup quarterback missed all the off-season workouts amid reports he was considering retirement. A person with knowledge of the decision told The Associated Press on Tuesday that the Cowboys were cutting ties with Orton slightly more than a week before the start of training camp. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team had not announced the decision. The 31-year-old Orton started the finale last year after Tony Romo injured his back a week earlier. The Cowboys lost to Philadelphia, their third straight season-ending defeat against an NFC East rival with a playoff berth on the line. The new backup is likely to be Brandon Weeden, Clevelands first-round draft pick in 2012. The Cowboys signed Weeden in March, and he worked with the first team during the off-season while Romo continued his recovery from back surgery. Orton was fined about $70,000 for failing to report during the off-season and missing the mandatory minicamp in June. The move saves Dallas about $3.25 million this season, but will cost the team about that amount on the salary cap over the next two seasons. After getting into just one game in his first season with the Cowboys in 2012, Orton played briefly in two games last year before starting against the Eagles. He was 30 of 46 for 358 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions against Philadelphia, including one late that clinched the Eagles 24-22 win. Orton has started 70 of 75 games in a nine-year career. He spent his first three seasons in Chicago before going to Denver, where he lost the starting job to Tim Tebow and signed with Kansas City after the Broncos cut him during the season. Weeden started right away after the Browns took him with the 22nd pick, but was benched for good late in his second season with a career record of 5-15, including losses in all five starts in 2013. Weeden turns 31 in October but is going into just his third season because he spent five years playing professional baseball out of high school. Keith Tkachuk Jersey .

The Oakland Athletics still dont have the new ballpark he says he believes they desperately need. Selig praised all parties after the As recently reached a 10-year lease agreement with the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Authority to stay at the rundown Coliseum. Whether the As are able to one day build a new stadium at the current Coliseum site or elsewhere in Oakland, Selig will support the teams ideas. "This is always something I wanted to get resolved before I leave office, which is another 5 1/2 or six months," Selig said Tuesday, citing litigation as the current snag. "Ive always said the local club, they know their market best." Sitting next to fraternity brother and longtime friend, As owner Lew Wolff, Selig acknowledged the criticisms of Oaklands ballpark situation while saying, "Its complicated, its very complicated." Earlier this year, the City of San Jose appealed a judges decision throwing out a key argument in its lawsuit against Major League Baseball over the As plans to relocate to San Jose, where the San Francisco Giants hold territorial rights. At the January 2012 owners meetings, Selig said the Bay Area situation was on the "front burner." He appointed a committee in March 2009 to study the issues facing the teams, but never ruled on the matter. "I know theres been criticism about the length this has taken. Im proud of everything weve done the last 22 years, but this is one of those things as I look back on it, however, its complicated, its very complicated," Selig said.dddddddddddd "Now we have litigation, so everything is now on hold. Thats just a fact of life once we get in litigation. But let me say at the outset, this team needs a new ballpark. ... Once the litigations resolved, then well all proceed." Rob Manfred will succeed the 80-year-old Selig on Jan. 25. Selig is making stops at all of the ballparks during his farewell tour. He said Manfred is up to speed on the challenges for the low-budget As, who have won the past two AL West titles. "Theyve done a remarkable job under the circumstances," Selig said. "One of the reasons for the resurgence of this sport, there are multiple reasons, are the new stadiums. ... I wish it had been resolved. I understand peoples frustrations, I do understand. Theres a lot of history here." Selig met with club officials during his short visit. Oaklands Bob Melvin was eager to get some time with Selig, who helped the manager get a job with Milwaukee after his playing days. Melvin had quite a connection: His late great-aunt, Estie, played bridge with Seligs parents. "Its quite the industry at this point now. Hes made a lot of changes in his tenure, whether starting with interleague, the competitive balance now and the strides that they took getting it to this point, instant replay," Melvin said. "Theres a lot of things hes done that for an old-school guy has really had an eye on some of the new-school things. Its been an incredible run." ' ' '
