The Facts: Following up on the ongoing story. ... The Eagles announced they have released Daniel.

Diehards Line: Daniel asked for his release earlier today in the wake of Nick Foles' signing with the team. Daniel signed a three-year, $21 million deal with the team last offseason, but the addition of Carson Wentz, a first-round pick in last year's draft, made it clear Daniel would remain a backup. As previously reported, Daniel has drawn interest from both the Saints and Bears.
