Eagles' Michael Bennett indictment: 10 important questions about situation, future in Philly

Michael Bennett was introduced to the Eagles media at the NovaCare Complex on Monday afternoon. It was his first time speaking publicly since the Eagles acquired him in a trade with the Seahawks.

He talked about his excitement for joining the Super Bowl winners, for teaming up with his friend Malcolm Jenkins and even took time to call out the rest of the NFC East quarterbacks he'd be facing this season in an Eagles uniform.

Just four days later, Bennett's future was in doubt.

Friday afternoon, the Houston Police Department dropped a bombshell — the Harris County grand jury indicted Bennett for "felony charge of the elderly" for allegedly injuring a 66-year-old paraplegic who was working at NRG Stadium in Houston to control access to the field at the conclusion of Super Bowl LI, which featured the New England Patriots against the Atlanta Falcons.
