Welcome back Trotter!
Trotter is an Eagle again? I’m shocked.
Certainly I think that it is a smart move by the Eagles: 1 year, $1 million is cheap to get a terrific middle linebacker and it makes sense to add some depth to the linebacking corps, especially after the team got so run-down in ’03 after Emmons got injured. Now the Eagles have some flexibility and some depth, as well as some fire in the locker room. And if Trotter doesn’t work out, it was just a one year deal.
It probably makes sense to Trotter too: to impress teams by rehabilitating his career after the Washington debacle and show them that his injuries aren’t severe. After he and Reid had such a public falling out, it would probably help to show teams that he’s a team-oriented kind of guy.
This is a terrific move by the Birds.
