Eagles release CB Williams

Published

on

Cornerback Cary Williams was released by the Philadelphia Eagles, who could be in the market for a pair of starters at the position.

Williams was due a base salary of $6.5 million and was scheduled to count $8 million against the salary cap in 2015. He started 32 games in two seasons with the Eagles, who signed Williams away from the Baltimore Ravens in free agency with a three-year, $17 million contract in 2013.

Williams, 30, is free to sign with any team immediately, before the rest of the 2015 free agent crop can change teams (March 10).

The team’s other starting cornerback in 2014, Bradley Fletcher, is not under contract for next season and had his share of problems with the deep ball this season. Notably, Fletcher was torched in some of the team’s biggest games, including at Green Bay and against the Dallas Cowboys.

The Eagles have only three cornerbacks on the roster — slot cornerback Brandon Boykin, Nolan Carroll and Jaylen Watkins.
