Philadelphia Eagles fans were more than a little surprised on Sunday when former 5th round pick, Ed Reynolds, stole the show, intercepting 2 passes and thrusting himself into the conversation at backup safety.
To this point, Reynolds has had a pretty underwhelming –albeit short– career with the Eagles. The 162nd pick in the 2014 draft, Reynolds came to Philadelphia with relatively low expectations, yet still disappointed, and failed to find a home on the final 53-man roster in his rookie season. So, Reynolds made the practice squad his home for the next 5 months, all the while plugging away and hoping to make his mark on the team in 2015.
