Jaire Alexander has been placed on the Eagles’ reserve/retired list just 11 days after the Ravens traded him to Philadelphia.
According to reports, Alexander is still dealing with the knee injury that has hampered him the past two seasons and is considering retirement.
The Ravens signed the 28-year-old two-time Pro Bowler at the end of minicamp. He started off hot in training camp, but the Ravens shut him down for about a month of camp to get his knee right.
Alexander returned for the start of the regular season but had a rough showing in Buffalo, and once again went on the shelf to try to get back in game shape. He played in just two games for the Ravens and made five tackles.
Alexander said last week upon landing in Philadelphia that it's the best his knee, which was operated on Jan. 1, had felt. However, he didn't make the trip to Green Bay with the Eagles because of a coach's decision.
The Ravens traded Alexander and a 2027 seventh-round pick to the Eagles in exchange for a 2026 sixth-round pick. Baltimore also saved roughly $2 million on salary cap space after reportedly inking Alexander to a one-year deal worth $4 million plus incentives.
