WATCH: Former Eagles Asante Samuel, LeSean McCoy say they knew Nnamdi Asomugha was free-agent bust from Day 1 - CBS Sports
Samuel was referring to how different Asomugha’s stats looked between his time with the then-Oakland Raiders and Philadelphia. Asomugha only surrendered one touchdown in 45 games with the Raiders through 2008-10, but he went on to allow nine over 32 games with the Eagles. LeSean McCoy, the 2011 Eagles’ star running back, told a story about Asomugha’s first one-on-one during practice. At first, everyone was excited and thought having Asomugha on the roster was a big deal — but they changed their minds after watching him go against tight end Brent Celek.
