Eagles Placing DE Derek Barnett On IR, Signing DE Janarius Robertson

The Philadelphia Eagles announced that they are placing DE Derek Barnett on injured reserve after his season-ending injury on Sunday. They are also signing DE Janarius Robinson off of the Vikings practice squad.

Barnett, 26, is a former first-round pick of the Eagles back in 2017. He was in the final year of his four-year, $12.85 million contract that includes $12.85 million guaranteed when the Eagles picked up his fifth-year option for the 2021 season. 

Barnett was in line to be an unrestricted free agent this offseason when he signed a two-year contract with the Eagles. 

In 2021, Barnett appeared in 16 games for the Eagles and recorded 46 total tackles, seven tackles for loss and two sacks.
