124 Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 FREAK OUT IN PHILLY Adam Schefter of NFL Network reports that the Philadelphia Eagles will be releasing defensive end Jevon Kearse. Per Schefter, Kearse was offered a pay cut, but a deal to keep him at a reduced salary could not be reached. He was due to earn a base salary of $6.46 million in 2008. Kearse took the league by storm as a rookie in 1999 with the Titans. Injuries became an issue for him in subsequent years. He jumped to the Eagles as a free agent in 2004. After recovering from a serious knee injury in 2006, Kearse was buried on the depth chart in 2007. There has been speculation that Kearse might return to the Titans, who could be losing Antwan Odom in free agency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
