They will support Pro Bowl players to the death.
News Holdout Titans RB Chris Johnson Reports to Eagles Camp
“I was really excited to see him out here. He looks like he’s in great shape and ready to go,” said Eagles head coach Andy Reid. “I was also surprised to see him, because I think he’s still on the Titans, right? Did he just drive up here last night?”
While Johnson says he still wants a new contract, he is itching to play and has been following all of the Eagles’ preseason hype.
“Let’s say the Titans even give me a new contract,” said Johnson. “What does that accomplish? I’m still playing for a shitty team. Nah, I’m an Eagle now.”
NFL rules prohibit a player from suiting up for a team he is not under contract with, but Johnson says he has a way around that.
“I haven’t run this by my agent yet, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work — I’ll just change my name to Cris Johnson with no ‘h’ in ‘Chris’ and then I’ll be a different name than what’s on the Titans contract,” said Johnson. “I’ll be free to sign with the Eagles then, right? Well, it makes sense to me.”
