Eagles Defensive Tackle Fletcher Cox Is Fired Up

Of course he’s excited to play in his first NFL Pro Bowl. Cox had 9.5 sacks this season which almost doubles his rookie year totals. He forced three fumbles which was another career high. It seemed his name was mentioned every game this season.

He’s also thrilled about the Eagles latest defensive line coach hire, Chris Wilson. Cox recalls his time with Wilson while at Mississippi State.

He helped me tremendously. He helped me a whole lot. He made me a better man, first of all. He’s real big on that part of it.
