I told you earlier this week that former Eagles running back Brian Westbrook has been working out with Minnesota Vikings tight end Visanthe Shiancoe and Arizona Cardinals defensive tackle Darnell Dockett.
Shiancoe has been raving about the way Westbrook has been looking in the workouts.
“This is the first time he’s been able to really work out fully and not feel [his previous injuries],” Shiancoe said. “This is the first time where he’s not being bothered and he’s able explode and really work out and prepare. He looks really, really fluid out there.
“He looks really good. He’s getting in training camp shape.”
There’s no telling right now, which team Westbrook is going to sign with.¬† He’s been offerred contracts by the St. Louis Rams and Washington Redskins.
I truely wish BWest the best, but really hope that he does not play again. He may be in great shape and his legs may be healed, but with the recent history of multiple concussions it will only take a single well placed hit and he could have a lifetime of problems. He was a great football player, I just hope that he doesn’t try and hang on too long.
He was done over 2 years ago with all the ankle and knee injuries over the last 5 years..
He probably missed more practices than any other player in Eagle History
Now you add multiple concussions on top of a breken down body, he’s just asking for trouble..
.Just retire #36.. No shame in that, you don’t owe anyone, anything,… Enjoy your health with your family for the next 40 years …
I would love to see westbrook back with Mcnabb in the westcoast offense making a run for a ring with the redskins championship winning coach. Man, it would be special if the eagles could trade Djax to the skins for a few picks and the redskins would really be ready. It helps both teams achieve their goals. The Redskins can contend for a championship, while the eagles can stay comfortably under the cap and have value in paying a lower salary to draft picks instead of giving their players like Djax the money they deserve. please trade Djax to a division rival..He’s asking to be paid his worth!!!! Trade Em’.
