Sources told Garafolo that Cox was released just before he would have been fully guaranteed $18M. He adds that Cox and his representatives have interest in returning to Philadelphia.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that the Eagles brass is working to bring back Cox under a reworked contract, though now he can listen to offers from all 31 NFL teams.
Cox, 31, was drafted 12th overall by the Eagles in the 2012 draft from Mississippi State University. In 10 season with Philadelphia, Cox has become a stalwart on the defensive line, earning six Pro Bowl nods and a 2018 First Team All Pro.
