Man I loved Swift. Totally underutilized in the offense last year. One of the only bright spots. There were some games early in the season he was effective as the bell cow late in games to chew up clock. Glad the Philly guy got paid.
So, right now unless there is some movement on the Saquon Barkley front it’s #KennyGSZN! I’m sure Eagles fans would love that. Just don’t say anything mean to him in his DMs during a game.
Shout out to Swift’s agent, who didn’t add in some dumb jargon that makes it seem like he’s the next coming of Barry Sanders. Not like some 49ers QB none of us has ever heard of, and this agent language:
The #49ers are re-signing QB Brandon Allen, source said. An excellent presence in their QB room.

The Eagles will get a compensatory pick with Swift leaving in free agency. They also apparently tried to get a deal done before the legal tampering period:
The #Eagles attempted to re-sign D'Andre Swift before the tampering period with an offer, but Swift waited it out — and cashes in.
