Eagles release linebacker Devin White

As expected, the Eagles released veteran linebacker Devin White, who was a healthy scratch through the first four games of the season.

White missed that Buccaneers loss in week four and had been inactive for games against the Packers, Falcons and Saints.

The Eagles had Nakobe Dean and Zach Baun starting the first four games, and Baun was one of the most impressive linebackers in the NFL through the first three weeks.

White left Tampa Bay for Philadelphia hoping to refocus his career while becoming the missing piece that gets this Eagles team to the Super Bowl. Over the summer, it looked like White had proven he was the best linebacker on the roster while also taking on a leadership role, leading to the former Buccaneers star being promoted to defensive general.

White, a 2024 free agent signing, talked about being a team leader and improving Philadelphia’s linebacker position.

He will now try to sign with a playoff contender.
