One easy way is to use the storage facade. And i would do it before deleting the post.
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Storage;
Storage::delete($post->featured);

What form is $post->featured ? it needs to the the filepath not the URL to the image.
Level 3
i used this to store image
$featured = $request->featured;
$featured_new_name = time().$featured->getClientOriginalName();
$featured->move('uploads/posts', $featured_new_name);

can't you just look in the database and give an example filename. This still does not tell us what $post->featured contains?
Level 3
featured is name of column in database
Level 122
I know..... what does it contain?
