Eagles' Byron Maxwell reacts to Charleston church shootings

When news of the Charleston church shooting first broke last week, Eagles cornerback Byron Maxwell took to Twitter to ask for prayers for his city. Maxwell, a native of North Charleston, South Carolina, was obviously concerned about his family back home. Maxwell didn't have to time to be with his family right away since he had to finish up the last day of Philadelphia's mandatory minicamp, but he's since been able to travel back home.

Maxwell recently spoke to Robert Klemko of The MMQB about his reaction to the tragic event that took place.
