The Philadelphia Eagles are releasing cornerback Craig James, according to a report from Andrew DiCecco.
This roster move comes nearly one week before Eagles players report for training camp on Tuesday, July 26. James will have now the opportunity to catch on with another team.
It’s not surprising to see the Eagles move on from James. They were set to enter camp with 13 players listed at cornerback. They have a lot of young bodies at that position and James is a bit on the older side — relatively speaking, at least — since he turned 26 in April.
