Jeremiah Trotter released by Eagles

http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/7141464

Jay Glazer of Fox Sports has reported the MLB Jeremiah Trotter has been let go by the Ealges. Trotter had 113 tackles last year.

Wow this is a wried move Trotter is a hell of player I don't understand the move

 

WOW! This move caught me off guard. I'm sure DawkinsINT will explain this move by the Eagles.

 

I'm not super surprised, a little maybe but it was clear they were worried about Trotter losing a step. His knees aren't what they were I believe.

 

Wow. I'm a little surprised. I knew that he was in serious danger of losing his job to Gaither, especially after Reid called him out in practice, but I didn't think he would be cut. I wonder if they told him that he was being demoted and he asked to be cut. He supposedly started camp really strong in the first couple of weeks, but then went back to his horrific play of last year.

 

kinda shocked me but then again we are talking about a philadelphia sports team... they probably would have released peyton manning if they had a chance to

 

WOW....hopefully the saints are calling

 

This front office has been good when they've released veterans. Derrick Burgess is the only one that burned them, and he was mostly let go because he couldn't stay healthy. Otherwise the vets they've dumped have included Hugh Douglas, Corey Simon, Troy Vincent, Bobby Taylor, Duce Staley, Carlos Emmons, Hank Fraley, etc...

It's hard not to trust their decision on Trotter based on the track record they have shown.

Don't you already have enough former Eagles on your defense? Hollis Thomas, Simoneau, Dhani..

 

hey....we like former eagles :icon_cool:

 

His knees aren't what they were but I'm still a surprised by the move.

 

It should save the Eagles about $3 million or so, but I wonder if they have another plan to pick up a vet elsewhere.

 

we're sending Dhani back to you....lol

 

LOL...thank you!

 

He was a shadow of his former self...A change of scenery should help him though.

 

Oft-injured by 30 is no way to stay on an NFL team. Maybe after he proves to another team that he can stay healthy he can resurrect his career again.

 

Oh god a big name FA expect Snyder to be waving his cheque book anyday mow :icon_lol:

The Denver Broncos likely will consider signing linebacker Jeremiah Trotter, who was cut by the Philadelphia Eagles on Tuesday.

The Broncos have looked at adding offensive and defensive linemen and linebackers to their roster.


Trotter probably won't be out of work very long. Agent Jimmy Sexton said Trotter would meet with Tampa Bay on Wednesday and had received interest from several other teams.

"He's probably going to take the rest of the week to figure out what he wants to do," Sexton said.

Yahoo! Sports NFL writer Jason Cole.

 

I wish him luck wherever he goes even though it will suck seeing him wearing another team's uniform.

 

The Eagles gave him an ultimatum to either retire or be cut.. He chose the latter..

Not really surprising.. He was terrible against the pass and not much better against the run.. Wtf??

I think he's done.

 

Pretty much. I thought it was great how both he and Reid handled the situation. You could tell there was total appreciation and respect from both parties. The press conference and farewells in the locker room after was a complete lovefest.

 

i agree with the terrible against the pass statement.....but i think he's still decent against the run
