Eagles Fans Call on Pope to Bless Sam Bradford’s Knees
Philadelphia Eagles fans are excited about the prospect of Sam Bradford slinging the ball around in Chip Kelly’s offense. Kelly explained that the NFL team simply wants the former Dallas Cowboys running back fresh and acclimated in the system of the Philadelphia Eagles. “I think it will actually be fun”.
Ertz had his surgery on Friday afternoon.
The Eagles will face the Indianapolis Colts for their pre-season opener at the Lincoln Financial Field.
“It’s similar, but not on the same level that I had last year”, said Kelce.
I expect Jones to have another solid year for the Eagles and to be a cornerstone of the Eagles’ special teams. I don’t think there’s a whole lot of hostility in the locker room over there towards Chip.
My focus is whatever coach out here is trying to implement, do it as well as possible, Tebow said. “Eric Tomlinson came on the last two days and made some big catches in the red zone”. “His throwing motion is a little different, his release is a little bit quicker, even the decision-making and how fast he picked up this offense. It’s exciting to see that”.
On Wednesday, Murray spoke to the media following practice and said that he wasn’t injured, but a day later, he was back “sitting” on the sidelines (thanks to a well-placed chair from safety Malcolm Jenkins). On Saturday night, they will play each other and that is when Eagles fans will get their first look at Bradford in game action. Although Sanchez has pretty much locked up the No. 2 spot, Barkley and Tebow are battling it out for the No. 3 and a place on the Eagles roster.
But in each of those cases, it was understood why the player missed time. Among the most notable newcomers: quarterback Sam Bradford.
“I think as long as we continue to progress and we don’t have any setbacks, I feel very comfortable with where my knee is at right now”, Bradford told Philly Mag. It’s just my call.
“Obviously, I wanted to be out there”, Bradford said. Youre able to play a game that you love.
After Bradford sleeps on this indigity he will wake up to the realization that his guaranteed $13 million salary might also have factored into the decision. “There’s a fine line” between wanting to get a player ready for the season, and exposing him unnecessarily to injury”.
“There’s still plenty of time in the preseason for me to get the work that I need”.
