Here’s an understatement. Newly-added Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Haloti Ngata has been around for a while. He played for Brian Billick while with the Baltimore Ravens. No we’re being serious. He did.
After Billick came a new head coach, former Eagles special teams coordinator John Harbaugh. Somewhere in there, he crossed paths with current Eagles vice president of player personnel Joe Douglas, then a member of the Ravens’ personnel department.
When you think of it in that vein, it shouldn’t be any wonder why so many former Ravens have traded purple for midnight green recently.
