The Washington Redskins have made an offer to former Eagles runningback/concussion enthusiast Brian Westbrook today, which could be the first step towards two Eagles vs. Zombie Eagles matchups in 2010.
If he accepts (which he may be forced to do after interest from Denver and St. Louis has cooled) BWest will join Donovan McNabb and Brian Dawkins in the Man-I-thought-I-would-retire-an-Eagle club. He would also join a crowded Redskin backfield filled with former Pro Bowlers Clinton Portis, Larry Johnson, and Willie Parker. Mike Shanahan is offering this contract for one of three reasons:
A - He wants to create a sense of competition and urgency amongst his large stable of old, complacent RBs
B - McNabb has already thrown his weight around and forced his hand
C - He's an idiot masochist who enjoys watching head injuries and two-yard runs
Time will tell.
If it were 2004, the Redskins would have the the greatest collection of RB's ever assembled.
ReplyDeletethis just in: the Washington Redskins have just added Natrone Means and Tim Biakabutuka to their backfield.
ReplyDeleteJamal Anderson is left to do the Dirty Bird all by himself.
ReplyDeleteMomo, I think you were ill informed. It was not Tim Biakabutuka, it was actually Rashaan Salaam who was added to the Redskins roster.
ReplyDeleteI here Kijana Carter is trying out next week!
ReplyDeleteYou sure it wasn't Curtis Enis?
