Wow, this one I did not see happening. I figured they'd bring Lovato bring for another season.
Do you think the snap was part of Jake’s problem?? ( I think he was injured)
He could the holder might have more but if the snap is off and the holder overcorrects the kick is off , he gets blamed. That said I think he was hurt plus I guess this guy is cheaper
Eagles bringing back a familiar face in free agency
The Eagles are bringing back former draft pick Patrick Johnson on a one-year deal in free agency.

I like Covey as well, though his injuries last season were somewhat frustrating.
When it came out earlier this week that the Birds did not tender Covey, who was a restricted FA, I kind of questioned if he would return. From a financial perspective that made sense, as the minimum tender would have been @ $3.26M. But it seemed to indicate that the Birds were prepared to let him walk without getting anything in return. (You could argue that not tendering him was nothing more than trying to get him back for a lower rate, but a tender would have meant they either retained him or received a compensatory draft pick if he signed elsewhere.)
Fc. SMH we couldn’t match that? Did we offer??

Mekhi Becton gets two-year, $20 million deal
Late Friday night, the Chargers announced that veteran offensive lineman Mekhi Becton signed a contract with the team.

I think I’d rather have Becton then a draft pick who’s ability is unknown. I hope Skeen gets stronger
You obviously have a lot of snapper knowledge! Lurie and Roseman should hire you!
You could tell Roseman that you spent many Friday nights at The Skeller which is where you got tons of snapper knowledge!
What about Jalen Carter in a few years? It feels like this is all to get their house in order to keep guys like Carter (who will get $45M AAV), Jurgens, Nolan Smith and others in the next few years.
I get it but there’s always the credit cards of hurts AJ lane Johnson etc.
I ll let Howie work that. Just hope the plan of Skeens works. The guy from Houston shouldn’t make our practice squad
And I think that tells you how bad they wanted CJGJ gone
fyi

Mekhi Becton thanks the Eagles for making him better as he leaves for the Chargers
After four years with the Jets, offensive lineman Mekhi Becton was viewed as a major disappointment: The 11th overall pick in the 2020 NFL draft, Becton missed more games than he played and never developed into the franchise left tackle the Jets wanted him to be.

Class guy. I wish they’d have kept him but they clearly believe RG is interchangeable. Best of luck to the guy in LA.fyi

there had been speculation that Ojulari was a player that Howie might target (combo of injuries, underperforming, high draft pick, etc.)
Lane Johnson agrees to one-year extension through 2027
Eagles right tackle Lane Johnson has agreed to a one-year contract extension through 2027, the team announced Monday.

He’s legit HOF level. Not sure how the PED suspension might affect that though.
Sounds like Brandon Graham is retiring at noon today. The team announced a vague press conference to discuss his career.
Godspeed to him. He’s an Eagles all-time great and a warrior. I hope they keep him involved with the team.
