Long-time defensive lineman Haloti Ngata announced his retirement on Instagram on Monday. The 35-year-old played for the Eagles in 2018 after three years with the Lions. He'll mostly be remembered for his days on a dominant Baltimore Ravens defense. Ngata was a first-round pick in 2006 and was named to five Pro Bowls, two first-team All-Pro teams and two second-team All-Pro squads in nine seasons with the Ravens.
The Philadelphia Eagles signed defensive tackle Haloti Ngata to a one-year deal. Ngata played for the Detroit Lions for the past three seasons, but he only got into five games last season due to a biceps injury. He's 34, but he was still very effective when he was on the field. He'll play in a rotational role on the Eagles defensive front in 2018.
Free-agent defensive tackle Haloti Ngata is set to sign a one-year deal with the Philadelphia Eagles, according to Adam Schefter with ESPN. Ngata will likely fill a void left by Beau Allen for the Super Bowl champions and strengthen their defensive line. The 34-year-old dealt with a biceps injury that cut his 2017 season short, so the Eagles will bet on him regaining his Pro Bowl form (2009-2013).
Detroit Lions defensive tackle Haloti Ngata (biceps) has been placed onInjured Reserve and will miss the rest of the season. Ngata, who contemplated retirement at the end of last season, could be at the end of his illustrious NFL playing career. The Lions are third in the NFL in run defense on the year, allowing only 74.6 yards per game on the ground. The loss of Ngata will hurt them considerably in that regard. Dontae Jones was signed as a potential replacement, but this Lions defense will be considerably worse moving forward. A matchup against the Saints this week should relegate the Lions defense to the bench in all fantasy formats.
