GM Howie Roseman Announces That Jaire Alexander’s Departure Was Due to His Release by the Eagles – Alexander Reportedly Caused Locker Room Chaos After the Eagles vs. Packers Game
Just ten days after signing a highly publicized deal with the Philadelphia Eagles, star cornerback Jaire Alexander has officially been released from the team. According to General Manager Howie Roseman, the decision came after a locker room incident that unfolded following the Eagles’ hard-fought 10–7 victory over the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field — Alexander’s former team.
Team sources revealed that tensions began when Alexander’s postgame celebration was seen as overly excessive and directed toward his former Packers teammates. Several players reportedly felt the display was “disrespectful to the locker room’s unity,” and a heated argument soon followed, nearly escalating into a physical altercation.

Despite efforts from the coaching staff to deescalate the situation, it became clear that the damage was done. After a closed-door meeting the next morning between Howie Roseman and head coach Nick Sirianni, the organization made the decisive call to release Jaire Alexander, ending a brief but turbulent chapter in Philadelphia.
Speaking at a press conference at NovaCare Complex, Roseman addressed the decision with composure and conviction:
“Here in Philly, we don’t just build a football team – we build a family. And in a family, discipline and unity are the foundation. As members of that family, we share joy and pain together, but when someone chooses to break that bond, they’re no longer part of this family.”
Roseman’s words quickly spread across social media, earning widespread praise from Eagles Nation as a statement of strength and principle. Many viewed it as more than just an explanation — it was a reaffirmation of the Eagles’ identity: a franchise built on discipline, accountability, and brotherhood.
Jaire Alexander, a 2× Pro Bowler and 2× All-Pro, was expected to be a key addition to Philadelphia’s secondary. However, those close to the situation believe his deep emotional connection to Green Bay — where he served as a defensive captain for years — may have made it difficult for him to fully embrace his new environment.
As Alexander prepares to move on, Roseman made it clear that the Eagles’ focus remains unshaken. The organization intends to preserve its chemistry and stay locked in on its ultimate goal — returning to the Super Bowl. In Philadelphia, one thing remains certain: talent may get you here, but character and unity are what keep you here.
