Despite leading his team in tackles over the past two seasons, Alex Singleton won’t receive a tender. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter (via Twitter), the Eagles won’t be tendering the linebacker, making him a free agent.
The 2015 first-round pick found himself with three different organizations during his rookie campaign, and he ended up having to spend three seasons in the CFL, where he earned All Star appearances and a Most Outstanding Defensive Player Award.
The Eagles gave him another shot in the NFL in 2019, and following a first season with the organization where he exclusively played on special teams, Singleton established himself as one of the most dependable members of the defense over the past two seasons.
After finishing with a team-leading 120 tackles in 2020, Singleton took it to another level in 2021. The 28-year-old finished this past season with 137 tackles to go along with four passes defended in 16 games (eight starts).
