The Eagles have released linebacker Zach Brown, according to a team press release. The Eagles D came up short against the Vikings – after Brown ran his mouth a bit – and, now, Brown is no longer part of the team.
Brown was released by the Redskins back in March and scooped up by the Birds soon after on a one-year, $3MM deal. Unfortunately for him, he only got to see his old team once this year – the Eagles’ second showdown with the Redskins won’t take place until December.
Brown was supposed to help replace inside linebacker Jordan Hicks this year, but didn’t meet the Eagles’ expectations. The 29-year-old started in all six games before his release and registered 29 tackles in total.
Brown received extremely high grades from Pro Football Focus last year, grading out as their third best linebacker overall behind only Bobby Wagner and Luke Kuechly. It stands to reason that he won’t be out of work for long, though, as this past offseason taught us, he probably won’t secure the bag.
Raaaaaaaams
You are the weakest link. Goodbye.
Yup,all his fault they give up atleast 1 100 yard receiving game every week.
If he only knew how to keep his mouth shut, he’d still have a job.
This guy is a perfect example of why PFF grades don’t matter. Consistently grades out high by their scores, hasn’t found a coaching staff that wants him yet.
Chiefs need all the defense they can get.
yuuuuuupp!
Secure the bag?
Smh, Eagles are a joke…. dude is 2nd on the team in tackles. They are also about to be really thin at LB for the next couple weeks.
(Ankle): Bradham left the last game with an ankle injury, and it is unclear if he will partake in Week 7 against the Cowboys. (Updated October 13, 2019).
Now he can rejoin his BAND !!
Raiders !
Please sign him, Chiefs; our run defense is awful.
