Taiwan Jones is getting his shot at running back again!

:clap:

I hope he's made strides in ball security and being more decisive. If he can get those down at the NFL level, he would be putting up stellar numbers.

AT corner he survives, at running back he dies.
As a running back he is a potato chip, in a nail and hammer game. He can not take the hits.

Obviously he isn't going to be their ground and pound guy. Probably a special situation play/ occasional weapon. I would argue that returning on special teams is a more punishing job than that.
 
Bronson waived today from Seattle. :(

Sounds like he'll revert to IR, but if it's this early then something tells me we'll see him released from IR with a settlement.

Tevin added to active roster!
 
InferNoMercy,
Glad to see that Tevin McDonald was moved to Oakland Raiders "Active Roster", he didn't impress me that much when he played here for us. At least he is getting a chance, hope he makes it all the way. Now that New Orleans Saints picked up Jake Rodgers, hope he get the opportunity to really make some big progress, and to be added the Saints Active Roster. Again thanks for the news. :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: Vic Wallace

Taiwan first nfl td, congrats!

I missed that and just turned the game on a few minutes ago. I did watch the Raiders last week and TJ is all over the place on special teams and actually played quite a bit in the backfield and in the slot as a receiver. He seems to be a lot more active this year than in previous years.

Haven't seen McDonald play much in the games I've watched. Was hoping to see him get some action.

Weird having two former Eagles on the same NFL team.

That brought me back. That play is perfectly built for TJ. He's damn near impossible to tackle 1v1 in open space.

JC Sherritt was tremendous at the West Plains Chamber luncheon. Great to see Greg Peach and Matt Nichols there and so many Eagle fans.
 
JoinTheEAF,
Sorry I couldn't make it. I am so happy to hear there was a great turn out of Eagle The Nation Fans. Well heard Defensive Coordinator is Eti Ena, :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: I think he played here a while ago, and was also a Coach here for the Eagles. Glad to have him back. The rumors are that LB Jake Gall has given up Football. Heard he have been very sick after his injury earlier in the season. If it is correct, we wish Jake all the best, and here is hoping he finish his degree and he can become a Fire Fighter like his Dad. Coaches are on the road Recruiting, so don't want to say something that is not the truth. Heard of some other Player that have given up FB, this normally happen each year after the Winter Breaks. I will wait for Coach Beau to let us know who is not returning. Good Luck to the ones that will not be returning for FB. Get your degree so you have something to go back on. "Good Luck To All" :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: Vic Wallace

Here's a great interview with two great Eagles who are now starring in the CFL.
 
Just some quick things:

• Jake Rodgers signed a futures contract with the New York Giants for 2016.

• Clay DeBord and Aaron Neary are spending the week participating in the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl. No word on how they are doing so far or if they've met with any teams.

• Vernon Adams had a meeting with the San Francisco 49ers after Monday's Shrine Game practice.
