UPDATE: The Eagles Will Reportedly Not Use Their Franchise Tag On Sam Bradford and Will Pursue NICK FOLES
WHAT ON GOD’S GREAT GREEN PLANET IS GOING ON?!
Adam Schefter apparently just reported on NFL Live – we’re searching for the video – that the Eagles will not place the franchise tag on Sam Bradford, keeping him around for a year, and will opt for the much more sane option of TRADING FOR NICK FOLES!
More soon. But, spoiler, I may be done with this team.

UPDATE 2: Still no evidence that Schefter said this on the air, but ESPN sent out the alert nonetheless.
