Eagles QB Nick Foles mentioned that he nearly retired from the NFL after the Rams elected to cut him loose a few years ago.
“Yes, I sat there and talked with my wife,” Foles said, via Reuben Frank of NBC Sports Philly. “You go through a lot of emotions. Changing teams, being traded, going there, going through that year, and once I was a free agent, we just sort of sat there and said, ‘Hey what do we want to do?’
“It was the first time I had been a free agent in my career and it was the first time I had to make a decision because I was drafted and traded.
