Alshon Jeffery Would Reportedly 'Welcome' a Change of Scenery as Trade Rumors Swirl

The Philadelphia Eagles have made the playoffs in each of the past three seasons, but one of their best offensive playmakers remains increasingly displaeased with how things are being run over there.

Alshon Jeffery, who signed a contract that will theoretically keep him in Philadelphia until 2022, has since reneged on his unwavering commitment to the Eagles, as it now seems he would welcome being traded elsewhere.

Jeffery, a second-round pick out of South Carolina who spent his first five seasons with the Chicago Bears, instantly gave the Eagles passing game a shot in the arm when they brought him in for the 2017 season, as his bruising physicality and nine touchdown catches helped Philly win a Super Bowl.

Things haven't been as smooth for Jeffery since, as he played in 13 games in 2018, and just 10 in 2019 due to injury. His brittle frame, plus a contract that carries a lot of dead cap with it that makes trading him this year almost impossible, is going to put Howie Roseman in a really difficult position.

Jeffery has been one of the premier large receivers in the league over the last decade or so, but Philly could find it hard to trade him on account of his contract and mounting injury concerns. We could be in for a few more juicy leaks thanks to him if he sticks around in 2020.
