Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery said he "loves" his current city Wednesday ahead of the Eagles' playoff matchup with his former team, the Chicago Bears, on Sunday.
According to Zack Rosenblatt of NJ.com, Jeffery said the following regarding his time with the Bears: "I love the city of Philadelphia. Chicago is just where I was for work."
Jeffery's words were seen as a criticism of Chicago initially, but he later clarified the remarks to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The 28-year-old wideout said he still loved Chicago too but referenced the firings of a general manager and coach as things that were difficult for him.
