According to the Eagles official twitter account, the birds have released Wide Receiver Seantavius Jones due to a non-football related injury.

Well, his legacy in Philadelphia rivals the legend of Frank Gore, although it’s not quite as impressive..

Jones was signed in the off-season after spending the last two years with the New Orleans Saints on their practice squad.

Jones appeared in a total of three games during the 2015 season for the Saints but was prominent on special teams. Whilst he started the season on the active roster, he ended it on the practice squad. He was listed as inactive for the Saints final 3 games of 2014 after spending the opening 13 games with the practice squad.

The competition at Wide-Receiver just got even more intense..
