The Eagles released offensive lineman Nick Gates on Tuesday.
Gates was signed by the Eagles during Training Camp as a veteran insurance option with 41 career regular-season and playoff starts across four of the five starting offensive line positions before arriving in Philadelphia. He originally entered the league as a rookie free agent with the Giants in 2018 and joined the Commanders for the 2023 campaign.
He suited up in nine games for the Eagles this season, starting the regular-season finale at center. Gates suffered a groin injury in the prep for the Super Bowl and was placed on Injured Reserve.
