Eagles are a ‘hell of a destination,’ says All-Pro who requested a trade - NJ.com
Appearing on “The Zach Gelb Show” on CBS Sports Radio, Garrett was asked about the possibility of joining the Eagles if he were traded to Philadelphia. “We went there for a preseason game, and I definitely got me a cheesesteak,” Garrett told Gelb. “It lived up to my hopes. I’m not going to stay too attached to any one team at this point. I know my fate really isn’t in my hands, but it would be a hell of a destination.”
Myles Garrett trade: Recent history says Browns fans should lower their expectations - Dawgs By Nature
Two first-round picks (or the equivalent) are not off the board but it seems unlikely given recent trades. The problem for Garrett and Cleveland is that the team has no reason to want to trade him away without getting a great return in the deal. Garrett’s contract and the impact on the salary cap also limits the team’s motivation to make a deal.
Eagles-Chiefs Game Preview: 5 questions and answers with the Super Bowl enemy - BGN
3) What’s one thing that really worries you about the Chiefs heading into this game? The Eagles inside pass rush against the Chiefs’ reshuffled offensive line. Left guard Mike Caliendo has been a liability since entering the starting lineup with Joe Thuney kicking outside to left tackle. Jalen Carter has not really developed into a traveling player, so he will likely line up opposite Pro Bowl guard Trey Smith. Jordan Davis is no slouch, however, and I fear center Creed Humphrey will focus so much on helping Caliendo that it will be difficult to reinforce Smith if Carter is cooking.
Trent McDuffie prepares for new role vs. Eagles this time around - Arrowhead Pride
The last time Kansas City Chiefs star cornerback Trent McDuffie played against the Philadelphia Eagles (in last year’s regular season), he predominantly played from the slot while ex-teammate and current Tennessee Titan L’Jarius Sneed held down the perimeter. Fast forward to this year, and the gauntlet of being the man on the outside has fallen at McDuffie’s feet. It’s a challenge he has taken head-on and is looking forward to on Sunday in Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans. To prepare for the game, McDuffie said he watched Super Bowl LIVII, in which the Chiefs defeated the Eagles — and the 2024 matchup, in which the Eagles defeated their home team. “Honestly, really just looking at how they were attacking us, seeing just the things that I can improve upon as far as technique-wise,” explained McDuffie from the podium on Wednesday. “I’m on the outside this time, so just watching more tape on A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.”
