Re: Eagles to release Pro Bowler Trotter
Quote:
Omar goes to work
Omar Gaither, who started the second half of last season at weak-side linebacker, got much of the work with the starting defense yesterday at middle linebacker, although the significance of that wasn't immediately clear since there was nobody around to talk about it.
Gaither, who is on the first nickel, has been backing up Jeremiah Trotter this summer at middle.
Trotter is entering his 10th NFL season, has bad knees and is coming off an admittedly disappointing 2006 season.
This didn't appear to be a case of Reid resting a veteran, since Trotter was out there working with the second-team defense.
Reid met with the media before practice and wasn't available after practice. There was no locker room access or player availability following practice.

From the PhillyBurbs website....
Gaither must really be impressing up there.
P.S. On a personal note, I hope this creates room on the Eagles roster for my Harding homeboy, Tank Daniels.
