The Eagles on Thursday announced the release of defensive end Darren Howard, who had been with the team since the 2006 season. In that time, Howard recorded 21 1/2 sacks, including 5 1/2 in 2009. Signed as an unrestricted free agent prior to the 2006 campaign, Howard had 5 sacks in his first season as an Eagle, one in 2007, a team-high 10 in 2008 and then the 5 1/2 last season. "Darren Howard has been one of our most productive and versatile members of our defense in the last couple of years," said head coach Andy Reid. "He is nothing but a solid player, leader and person on and off the field."

I hope the Eagles resign either Howard or Babin. Don't feel happy losing both of them.

Looks like the eagles are cleaning house! I was a little shocked about releasing Howard cause he was a pretty good guy maybe they will match the offer of the titans for Babin

He won't be on the market long, if the Eagles don't re-sign him he will go fairly quickly to a team that realizes his potiental as a pass rusher.

Same here. They must have something up their sleeve.

I do hope they have something up their sleeves cause releasing Howard was a surprising move although he was due a mill today if he had stayed in the team, and they can't be cheap with the defense cause that's where we need the most help.

They could have always traded Howard and a 6th for Tapp although I'm sure they tried or at least i hope they did
