Jahan Dotson admits Eagles trade was a shock, but said he’s “very excited”

The Philadelphia Eagles were fresh off their final preseason game of the year, and new WR Jahan Dotson spoke to reporters for his first time since being traded by Washington. The former first-round draft pick — with a football in his arms — spoke about his reaction to the trade and what his role will be among such a talented offense.

Dotson admitted that despite growing up just over an hour away from Philly, he wasn’t an Eagles fan, but said that he and his whole family became Eagles fans now — he also coyly avoided answering which team he did root for.
