NFC East news: James Bradberry taking snaps at safety, Commanders’ sign UFL kicker

After a rough year, and Philly’s draft crop, Bradberry has moved positions.

James Bradberry is still an Eagle.

He’s just not a cornerback anymore.

Nick Sirianni said before minicamp practice Tuesday that Bradberry – a 2nd-team All-Pro cornerback two years ago – is now working at safety.

With the addition of 1st-round pick Quinyon Mitchell, 2nd-round pick Cooper DeJean and free agent Isaiah Rodgers, there wasn’t a spot at corner for Bradberry across from six-time Pro Bowler Darius Slay.

But the Eagles obviously don’t want to release Bradberry, who statistically was the worst corner in the NFL last year because of the cap hit – as a post-June 1 release, he would count $4.
