Eagles linebacker Myles Jack has told the team he plans to retire after seven seasons in the league, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported Sunday morning.
Jack was originally a second-round pick by the Jaguars in 2016 out of UCLA, and he played his first six seasons with Jacksonville before spending last season with the Steelers. The linebacker accumulated over 100 tackles four times in his career, totaling 617, and added 6 1/2 sacks in seven years.
After being a free agent for most of the offseason, Jack signed with the Eagles on Aug. 6 to compete for a roster spot. However, just two weeks after joining Philadelphia, Jack has decided to walk away from the game.
