The Eagles released punter Donnie Jones from the reserve/retired list on Wednesday for a reason. The veteran requested his release in order to continue his playing career, agent Ken Harris tells Ian Rapoport of NFL.com (on Twitter). 
A few weeks after the Eagles’ Super Bowl win, Jones announced that he would retire after 14 seasons in the NFL. The Eagles seem prepared to move forward with Cameron Johnston, so Jones will explore his opportunities elsewhere.
Jones, who will turn 38 in July, was solid in 2017 as he ranked 15th in yards per punt average and 16th in net average. He also placed 35.1% of his punts inside of the 20-yard line.
At a bargain basement price, perhaps the Giants would sign him including bonus and incentive clauses in his contract. Big Blue needs a Punter and a Placekicker in 2018.
So he would have been a cap cut?
Still good
Weird turn of events, hopefully he re-signs and stays in Philly.
Raiders, just b/c he’s not Marquette King.
What happened to spending time with family? After 2 weeks, wife told him to go out and get a job?
