Alex Singleton guarantees he’ll break the Eagles single-season record for tackles in 2021

Tackles are the one statistic in football that has taken some time to fully grade and keep up with and it’s constantly debated.

You can see who completes a pass or breaks off a long run, but it can sometimes be difficult to properly score a tackle (solo/combo) and it’s something that the NFL has been working to perfect since 1994.

During a recent appearance on The Wooderboys Podcast, Singleton and the guys discussed his performance from 2020, when the talented linebacker guaranteed he’d shatter the Eagles’ single-season record for tackles.

During the 1988 NFL season, Reggie White logged 18 sacks and 133 combined tackles from his defensive end position.

Ray Lewis leads the NFL in the single-season tackles category, logging 156 during the 1997 season in Baltimore.
