Deal Is Win-Win For Eagles, Bradford

Sam stays. It’s a good thing for the Eagles and for quarterback Sam Bradford, who agreed to terms on a two-year contract on Tuesday that provides the team, and the player, some continuity at the game’s most important position.

The oft-discussed should-he-stay-or-should-he-go story is resolved: Bradford, who started 14 games in 2015 after the Eagles acquired him on the first day of free agency in a trade with St. Louis, is able to spend his offseason working to get stronger and more physically prepared for new head coach Doug Pederson and his “hybrid” West Coast offense rather than rehabbing from knee injuries that robbed him of all but seven games in the 2013 and 2014 seasons.
