Isaiah Rodgers Paid Tribute to Izel Jenkins with Multiple Toastings in Eagles Win
Published:
This isn’t an Isaiah Rodgers hate post, since he is a Super Bowl-winning Philadelphia Eagle, but there was a lot of chatter this week about the Eagles’ letting him walk and he got torched:
TOUGH assignment against DeVonta Smith and A.J. Brown, but Rodgers looked like Izel Jenkins on more than one occasion. Someone needed to inherit the “toast” nickname, or “the human crouton.” Rodgers ended up in the spin cycle on the Smitty dagger and was in coverage on the late heave to A.J. Brown that ended the game.
Forgettable afternoon for Rodgers, who was the second coming of Champ Bailey, according to Twitter. Still a ring-winning Bird, but we gotta rip him for one day only, since he was the enemy this Sunday.
