As voluntary OTAs came to an end Thursday, the Philadelphia Eagles made a bolt statement when they cut Evan Mathis.

Mathis, 33, had been one of the Eagles' better offensive linemen when healthy, while also developing a reputation as one of the league's best guards. He's made the Pro Bowl in each of the last two seasons (despite missing seven games with a knee sprain last year), and earned All-Pro honors in 2013.
