Examining the roster ties between Patriots, Eagles leading up to Super Bowl LII

Looking at the rosters of New England and Philadelphia is like looking through an old yearbook.

There are some faces that you remember well, and there are others that you forgot were in your class. Some moved away. And some, uh, were cut and signed with another NFL team’s practice squad?

Maybe that parallel doesn’t quite fit. But there is some yearbook-like nostalgia when it comes to the two rosters set to meet in Minnesota for Super Bowl LII.

Several players will be revisiting their former employer there. Nine, when accounting for both 53-man rosters and 10-man practice squads, were once a Patriot or an Eagle.
