Chris Long reportedly hasn’t accepted Eagles’ contract offer yet as he mulls whether to return in 2018

So, about the Philadelphia Eagles giving Chris Long a raise ... apparently the veteran defensive end hasn’t actually accepted their offer yet. At least that’s what Mike Silver is reporting.

As @fieldyates reported, the Eagles earlier this month offered to upgrade DE Chris Long's 2018 contract. The guaranteed money is actually in the $4 million range. However, Long has not yet accepted. Still mulling over what a source says is a "football decision" whether to return.

Huh.

Earlier this month, Long did say that he has “no idea” if he’s going to return to football in 2018.
