For what it’s worth, our friendly Eagles source emailed and used the word “setup” as well, but declined to go into further details. For all I know, it’s the same person who reached out to all three of us, and quite likely other local reporters. Whatever the case, the off-the-record message coming from a person or person close to the Eagles is firmly in defense of Agholor. Is that really the case or just the party line? Don’t know. But the Agholor camp is planting that seed with the media and assorted jerkoff bloggers.
