Jeremiah Trotter

Middle linebacker Jeremiah Trotter was released by the Eagles on Tuesday, a surprising end to the Pro Bowl player’s second stint with Philadelphia.

Coach Andy Reid informed Trotter of his decision Monday night during an emotional meeting. Trotter was a fan favourite because of his intensity, big hits and candor

“Jeremiah and I have been together for many years and he’s played a vital role in helping this team win a lot of football games,” Reid said in a statement. “He developed himself into a Pro Bowl middle linebacker through a lot of hard work and desire. In my mind, he will always be a Philadelphia Eagle and I’m sure he feels the same way.
