Quarterback Art Schlichter, who had a relapse of his gambling problems last season, won’t return for another season with the Cincinnati Rockers of the Arena Football League.

It was a mutual decision, said Schlichter, who was suspended twice for gambling while playing in the NFL. He will concentrate on working with a local radio sports talk show and dealing with his gambling problem.

“We felt it might be time for Art to move on,” Rocker General Manager Keith Sprunk said. “Art felt it was time to move on. Being around football doesn’t help Art’s problem.”
