Eagles' Chase Daniel: Asks Eagles for release

Daniel has requested to be released by the Eagles, Kimberley A. Martin of Newsday reports.

Analysis:

Daniel's decision comes after the Eagles brought back quarterback Nick Foles on a two-year contract Monday. With Carson Wentz clearly Philadelphia's long-term answer at the position, Foles' presence further blocks Daniel's path to playing time, which he's now seeking elsewhere. While Daniel's future reportedly has been subject to speculation "for weeks," his career 78 passing attempts across seven seasons still leaves question over his value.
