EAGLES NEWS

The Eagles surprisingly released A.J Feeley today, leaving them for the moment with just 2 active Quarterbacks. To take the spot vacated by Feeley the Eagles acquired 6-3 222 LB rookie DT Antonio Dixon off waivers from the Redskins. Dixon will obviously just be defensive line more depth for the Birds, particularly against the rush where they were going to be a little thin without superb run stuffing MLB Stewart Bradley for the rest of the season. So I guess Dixon is good pickup. I just really thought the Eagles would at least trade Feeley for some defensive line help, rather than just releasing him.

Yea Feeley isnt a bad back up QB so its suprising that the Eagles didnt push for anything for him.
