The last few weeks have been difficult for the Philadelphia Eagles. Although the front office is still in excellent shape, they did lose a key contributor to the New York Jets. Last weekend, it was announced that Vice President of Player Personnel, Joe Douglas was getting a promotion. Unfortunately, said promotion is not with the Eagles. Instead, he’s now with the Jets.
Howie Roseman’s number two might be out of the picture now, but it wasn’t all that easy for him to leave. Despite receiving a generous promotion to take charge of the New York front office, Douglas saw something in the 2019 Philadelphia Eagles that made it very difficult for him to take the job with the Jets.
