The Philadelphia Eagles announced Friday that they’ve released LB L.J. Fort to make room for newly signed CB Orlando Scandrick.
Fort, 29, originally signed on with the Browns as an undrafted free agent out of Northern Iowa back in 2012. He had brief stints with the Seahawks, Bengals and Patriots before the Steelers claimed him off of waivers back in 2015.
Fort was on and off of the Steelers’ practice squad for a few seasons but spent the better part of the past two years on their active roster. The Eagles signed him to a three-year contract back in March.
In 2019, Fort has appeared in four games for the Eagles and recorded one tackle.
