The Eagles cut LB Zach Brown yesterday in a slightly surprising move. The former Redskins LB ranked third in team tackles through six weeks but the comments about Kirk Cousins prior to the loss to Minnesota may have been the straw that broke a controversial Camel’s back.
The Eagles had a spare roster spot so it was assumed help would be brought in. They didn’t have to look far. Preseason standout Alex Singleton is now on the active roster heading into week 7.
After going undrafted in 2015, the 6’2, 232 lbs, linebacker bounced around NFL practice squads before landing in Calgary, where in three seasons he recorded 311 tackles, 4 sacks, one interception, and forced six fumbles.
