The Philadelphia Eagles’ reported signing of Johnathan Cyprien is a bit of a curious move. Let’s try to make sense of it.
Background
Cyprien barely missed out on being a first-round pick as he was selected by the Jaguars with the No. 33 overall selection in the 2013 NFL Draft. Cyprien started and played in 60 games with Jacksonville over four years before leaving the Jaguars to sign a four-year, $25 million contract with the Titans in March 2017. Cyprien started and played in 10 games in his first season with Tennessee before suffering an ACL injury in August 2018.
