Breakfast: Nick Foles, former Super Bowl winner, is free

[podcast] Draft – NFC East: Eagles and Giants, the winning duo

Nick Foles is free

Need a quarterback who won a Super Bowl? Nick Foles (QB) is free again. He was cut by the Colts on Friday. After the Anthony Richardson Draft, Indianapolis had four quarterbacks, as Gardner Minshew and Sam Ehlinger are also on the roster.

The 34-year-old Foles has become an avid traveler since winning the title with the Eagles in February 2018. With the Jaguars in 2019, Chicago the next two years and Indianapolis last season, he only managed to prevail nowhere.

With the Colts, he started 2 games. Nick Foles threw no touchdowns, but four interceptions. Barring a miracle, he now seems destined for a role of mentor at the bottom of the bench.

Colts: Hands off Andrew Luck!

Last year the Commanders tried everything to recruit a starting quarterback. ESPN reveals that Washington even contacted Andrew Luck (ex-QB, Colts) in L’hope to bring him out of retirement, before finally mounting a trade to get Carson Wentz. Information that irritated Jim Irsay (owner, Colts) for whom any attempt to contact Luck is a violation of NFL collusion regulations since he is still contractually bound with Indianapolis. The franchise will therefore inquire to find out what really happened.

Bryce Young and Anthony Richardson are number 2. So far.

Selected number 1 and number 4 of the last draft, Bryce Young (QB, Panthers) et Anthony Richardson (QB, Colts) are still discovering the big league. Their respective coaches preach the analysis of the two young quarterbacks and their learning of the high professional level. However ESPN confirms that if for now Young and Richardson are listed as replacements for Andy Dalton and Gardner Minshew, they could well attack the regular season as holders of their respective attacks.

Bears : Justin Fields progresse

While Chicago could have taken advantage of the first general of the draft to recruit a new quarterback, the franchise chose to invest to build around Justin Fields. And for the management of the Bears, the young pitcher validates their commitment even if he still has work and room for improvement.

“Between last year and this year, I think he’s light years away from where he was,” Luke Getsy (OC) told the Chicago Tribune. “And I think he still has a huge progression ahead of him. We’re very excited to try to get the best out of him in the future, and to take him where we think he can go. »

Off the field, Fields opened up possibilities. Over the weekend, he received his degree in financial services. The quarterback, who continued his education after joining the NFL, attended Ohio State’s graduation.

« Fake News »

It is to be hoped that the ex-quarterback will be more verbose live.
