The Eagles have about $12 million in cap space as it stands right now, which is third least in the league, to go along with eight draft picks in the 2017 draft.

Daniel has a cap hit of $8 million for each of the next two seasons.

The 30-year-old quarterback, who went undrafted in 2009, has started just two career games.

The Eagles are reportedly interested in Saints receiver Brandin Cooks.
