The free agency period in the NFL is lying season, so believe none of what you hear.
The Star-Ledger via Mike Freeman of Bleacher Report is reporting that the Eagles have a serious interest in the recently cut Champ Bailey.
Mike Freeman of Bleacher Report is reporting that, according to sources, the Philadelphia Eagles are a possible landing spot for free agent cornerback Champ Bailey.
Bailey was released earlier this week by the Denver Broncos.
In the report — which is delivered over a video via Bleacher Report host Adam Lefko — Freeman also lists the Atlanta Falcons as a possible suitor for Bailey.
Freeman does not report what kind of deal Bailey is looking for, something that is likely a critical factor when it comes to determining the Eagles interest.
It’s plausible, but Bailey would have to be fully on board with playing safety, and the Eagles would probably need to draft a young safety just in case Champ is truly out of gas.
