St Kilda defender Jake Carlisle won't be offered a new deal by the Saints for the 2022 season, according to 7 News' Tom Browne.
Carlisle has battled ongoing back injuries across his tenure in the red, white and black, playing just 27 games across the past three seasons.
The 29-year-old joined the Saints ahead of the 2017 season after six seasons with Essendon, playing a total of 151 games across his stints with the two Victorian clubs.

Carlisle has been limited to just four games for the Saints this season, with his last appearance coming in Round 6 against Port Adelaide.
The key-defender was an integral part of the Saints' impressive 2020 campaign, featuring in the club's elimination final victory over the Western Bulldogs before departing the club's Queensland hub to return home for the birth of his child.
Carlisle could be of value to rival AFL clubs, with several sides looking to bolster their key-position stocks for next season.
