This is a second lease on his NFL life, John Moffitt knows, and he’s going to enjoy every bit of it. Where he once battled and resisted and at times hated the grind of an NFL Training Camp, he is now embracing every rep, every meeting and every part of the process with the Eagles.
“The whole thing has been a surreal experience, but now I’m really enjoying it and appreciating the work and appreciating the structure of everything,” said Moffitt, who signed with the Eagles on June 29, continuing an improbable journey that has taken him from the life of an NFL starter who battled demons off the field, to an out-of-work young man searching to find himself, to a sober man who is back in the big leagues proving something to his team, and to himself.
