Denver–October 19, 2007 – The Denver Outlaws of Major League Lacrosse announced their 23 man off-season roster. After each season, each MLL team must submit 23 players who they wish to protect for the upcoming season. All remaining unprotected players will be released to the player pool and are eligible to be picked up by any team during the supplemental draft this spring.

Two notable names missing from the Outlaws roster are Goalie Trevor Tierney and Defenseman Trey Whitty. Both players have retired since the end of the 2007 season. Whitty was picked up during the 2007 season and was a contributing factor in the Outlaws second run for a championship.

Trevor Tierney has been on guard for the Outlaws since the franchise's inaugural game. Responding to the effect Tierney's retirement will have on the Outlaws, GM Brian Reese commented, "We're losing a great player in Trevor Tierney to retirement, but we still have some great players returning. We are very pleased to bring back the core of Outlaws team. I know these players are focused on improving and bringing a championship to Denver."

Reese remarked that despite some changes in the roster, the Outlaws look forward to 2008 with the return of seasoned veterans as well as new additions to help the team take the next step, "We'll bring in some additional players through the supplemental draft that will compete with these players for roster spots and ultimately work to always put the best combination on the field."
