Sheldon Brown trade request

Posted on 20. Apr, 2009 by BirdsFan in Eagles Related

Sheldon Brown has come out publicly and asked that he be traded. After losing his starting position with the addition of Asante Samuel, Brown has been disgruntled with the team for quite some time. He believes he is getting underpaid and wants to return to being a starter. It is reported that the Eagles are not budging on contract talks so it looks like he could get shipped out.

I believe the Eagles may have known about this for a while and it could be the reason they’ve been looking at so many cornerback prospects recently. If a trade does go through, it will be interesting to see what the Birds can get for him.
