The Philadelphia Eagles are expected to release veteran cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha, SportsRadio WIP reported Wednesday.
The Eagles signed Asomugha, 31, to a four-year, $60 million free-agent deal before the 2011 season, but the two-time All-Pro’s production the past two seasons hasn’t met expectations.
Asomugha’s base salary would be $15 million next season should the Eagles decide to keep the former Oakland Raiders stalwart on the roster. If he’s released, the Eagles would owe him $4 million, even if he plays for another team next season.
