Stephen Tulloch

The Philadelphia Eagles and LB Stephen Tulloch have agreed to terms on a one-year $3 million deal that includes $1.75 million in guaranteed money.

Fantasy Impact

Tulloch will likely be a rotational player on Philadelphia's linebacker corps in 2016. The 31-year-old adds a veteran presence on the field and in the locker room, something that is vital for a rebuilding team like the Eagles. Philadelphia's D/ST should only be used in favorable matchups in 2016 season and remain on the waiver wire to open the campaign.

Detroit Lions linebacker Stephen Tulloch has finally been released by the team, according to Pro Football Talk.

Fantasy Impact

Thus ends a bizarre saga in which Tulloch was told he would be released, only to sit on the roster in purgatory for a few months. Tulloch was productive during his five-year stint with the Lions, managing over 100 tackles in each full season he played. While he is no longer a three-down player, he will likely draw plenty of interest as a two-down thumper. The Cowboys, in particular, seem like an ideal landing spot after their starting middle linebacker, Rolando McClain, was suspended 10 games for substance abuse.

Detroit Lions LB Stephen Tulloch was "excused" from the team's mandatory minicamp on Monday. According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Tulloch is expected to receive his release within the coming weeks.

Fantasy Impact

Stephen Tulloch is expected to be released within the next few weeks according to reports. The 10-year veteran had a solid year with the Lions in 2015. He appeared in 16 games and tallied 108 tackles, one sack, two fumble recoveries, one forced fumble and a pass deflection. Tulloch will likely land with a new team as the preseason portion of the offseason approaches.
