After putting in a waiver claim and securing the services of Byron Young, the Eagles have announced that they are releasing veteran defensive tackle Marlon Tuipulotu.
The move gives the Eagles six defensive tackles: Jordan Davis, Byron Young, Jalen Carter, Thomas Booker IV, Milton Williams, and Moro Ojomo. This gives Vic Fangio a versatile, athletic, and powerful position group.
