Eagles head coach Andy Reid and General Manager Howie Roseman are looking at players, who have made mistakes in their lives but learned from them a little differently nowadays.

For weeks now reports stated the Eagles will use the franchise tag on wide receiver DeSean Jackson. On Thursday it finally became official as the franchise tag was placed on number 10. The Eagles became the first team this off-season to utilize the franchise tag. If the Eagles don’t sign DeSean long term he would [...]
The Eagles just placed the franchise tag on wide receiver DeSean Jackson. They had until this upcoming Monday to make the decision but they decided to get it done right now.
