Nick Foles Is Back, Baby! Oh, And Chase Daniel, That Backup QB Who The Eagles Signed For Billions, To Be Released

ESPN – Former Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Nick Foles is returning to the Philadelphia Eagles on a two-year deal, the team announced Monday. he deal is worth $11 million with $7 million guaranteed, a source told ESPN’s Josina Anderson, confirming a report by NFL Network. With the signing of Foles, Chase Daniel has asked the Eagles to release him and the team is expected to do so Monday, a source told ESPN’s Adam Caplan. The Eagles have been working to trade Daniel in recent days to a team that would benefit the veteran signal caller, but both sides felt the decision to release him now was mutually beneficial. The Eagles and Daniel’s representatives will work on potentially adjusting his contract to benefit both parties. Daniel, who signed a three-year, $21 million with the Eagles last offseason, is set to cost $8 million against the cap. While cutting him would leave $7 million in dead money, a trade would bring the team significant financial relief.

That big swinging dick who was deemed the franchise in 2013, traded away a season later, and became statistically the worst QB in the league is BACK for round 2! Sweet! Now at least the awkward looks I get when wearing this fire shirt will at least be relevant again. Somewhat.

Sure, there have been some decent signings this week. Even the biggest Howie Hater in the world can’t deny that. But moves like this are exactly why I question the future of the Eagles under this administration. I got nothing against Nick Folds. He’s a fine 2nd stringer for the NFL. But why the hell did they put this much stock in signing Chase Daniel for bananas backup money? Don’t give me this “another coach on the field” happy horseshit. Chase Daniel STINKS, and the Eagles again paying the price for another failed move. Not to mention I’m getting a little tired of being a poor man’s Andy Reid roster. This franchise loves to grab the tablescraps that have fallen from Big Red’s gullet. Chase Daniel. Nick Foles. DOUG FUCKING PEDERSON. Good thing nobody knows if Reno Mahe still exists or else he’d be returning punts on opening day.

Whatever. #NeverForget 27 and 2, baby. Memories. Hey, do you remember when Riley Cooper not only a ravaging racist, but was an average WR, too? Those were the days.
