Gardner Minshew posted a cryptic Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/stories/gardnerminshew5/2760487393502718764/?utm_source=ig_story_item_share&amp;utm_medium=copy_link">story</a> Thursday morning alluding to his departure from Philadelphia. The black background with white letters said:</p><blockquote>“…because he had no place he could stay in without getting tired of it and because there was nowhere to go but everywhere, keep rolling under the stars…” Road Trip 2.0 Starts Now</blockquote><p>The quote comes from author Jack Kerouac’s novel “On the Road.” Assuming he means that Road Trip 1.0 was his journey from the Jacksonville Jaguars to the Eagles, Minshew is looking to leave Philadelphia and find employment somewhere else.</p><p>This isn’t too surprising. Minshew wasn’t pleased with his role towards the end of the regular season. Following his outstanding performance against the New York Jets in Week 13, Minshew spoke with head coach Nick Sirianni about becoming the starting quarterback, per <a href="https://www.nbcsports.com/philadelphia/eagles/eagles-gardner-minshew-explains-asking-nick-sirianni-about-starting-job#:~:text=Minshew%20on%20Saturday%20night%20confirmed,it%20verbatim%2C%E2%80%9D%20Minshew%20said.">NBC Sports</a>.</p><p>“I was asking what it took and he said we are solid right now. I respect that and I am going to do everything I can to put myself in that position at some point,” Minshew said. Does “everything I can” mean leaving Philadelphia? It certainly seems like it.</p><p>A week ago, Sirianni made it clear that he hadn’t changed his mind, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/eagles-news-jalen-hurts-gets-crucial-endorsements-for-2022-season/">declaring</a> Jalen Hurts the official starting quarterback moving forward. This could have been all Minshew needed to make his decision.</p><p>While nothing is official yet, don’t expect to see Minshew on the Eagles roster next season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He made three consecutive Pro Bowls in Philadelphia and helped the franchise win its first-ever Super Bowl. He played a crucial part alongside a dominant offensive line that featured All-Pro lineman Jason Kelce, Lane Johnson and Jason Peters.</p><p>Injuries played a gigantic part in Brooks’ decision to retire. He missed the entire 2020 season due to a torn Achilles tendon and missed all but two games this past season with a torn pectoral muscle.</p><p>Brooks established himself as an Eagles legend with his stellar play and <a href="https://www.espn.com/blog/philadelphia-eagles/post/_/id/24284/eagles-brandon-brooks-brings-winning-battle-against-anxiety">willingness to speak out</a> about mental health struggles.

Despite having greater needs elsewhere on the roster, replacing Brooks may be something they look to address <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/philadelphia-eagles-3-early-free-agent-targets-for-the-2022-nfl-offseason/">this offseason</a> as they look to get back to the playoffs.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

With a first-year head coach and first-year starting quarterback, this was very much a rebuilding year. Despite the low expectations, the Eagles ended the regular season with a winning record of 9-8 and a short playoff run.</p><p>This offseason, Philadelphia has a lot of room to make changes to continue its rebuilding process. They have three first-round draft picks and a decent amount of cap space to capitalize on to fill gaps throughout the roster. That being said, here are the top three free agents that the Eagles should consider during the 2022 NFL Offseason.</p><p><b><i>*Watch NFL games LIVE with</i></b><a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/football/?irad=356362&amp;irmp=492408"> <b><i>fuboTV (click for free trial)</i></b></a><b><i>*</i></b></p><h2>Eagles Free Agent Targets for 2022 NFL Offseason</h2><p><b>3. Jadeveon Clowney – Defensive End</b></p><p>Brandon Graham is one of the Eagles’ oldest and most experienced players on the roster. He is one of the few players on the team that won the Super Bowl with Philadelphia back in 2018, and has been a solid edge rusher for the Birds since being drafted in 2010.</p><p>However, Graham’s age is catching up to him, making him more prone to injury than ever before. He spent most of the 2021-2022 season on Injured Reserve after <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/eagles-news-brandon-graham-done-for-season-with-torn-achilles/">suffering a torn Achilles in Week 2</a>.</p><p>It’s time for the Eagles to move on and find a new defensive end to take over as the team’s top edge rusher, and Jadeveon Clowney is the perfect fit. The Cleveland Browns free agent is five years younger than Graham. <a href="https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-2022-free-agent-rankings-free-agency">Pro Football Focus</a> highlights edge rushing and interior pass rushing as two of the defensive ends’ main strengths.</p><p><b>2. Mike Gesicki – Tight End</b></p><p>The Eagles began the 2021 season with two solid tight ends in Zach Ertz and Dallas Goedert. Ertz was traded to the Arizona Cardinals early in the season, leaving Goedert as the Eagles’ sole starting tight end.</p><p>Though he has been pretty solid for the Birds this season, they could definitely use some help in this portion of the roster. Goedert has made some pretty remarkable catches and plays for the Eagles offense, but he has also had some unforgivable drops and mistakes. If the Eagles signed Mike Gesicki of the Miami Dolphins for a few years, some of the pressure would be taken off of Goedert, and he would be less likely to fold in crucial situations.</p><p>Gesicki is known for his ability to compete in contested catches, as well as his balls skills under pressure, according to <a href="https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-2022-free-agent-rankings-free-agency">Pro Football Focus</a>. These skills would be extremely beneficial for the Eagles and their young quarterback.</p><p><b>1. Mike Williams – Wide Receiver</b></p><p>The Eagles were fortunate to draft Heisman Trophy winner and star wide receiver DeVonta Smith in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft. The rookie receiver had a breakout season for the Birds with 916 receiving yards and five touchdowns.</p><p>However, many fans fear that Smith’s size could result in an injury if he is overused. Although he is 6 feet tall, the wide receiver is only 170 lbs. That being said, the Eagles could greatly benefit from the acquisition of a larger wide receiver like Mike Williams of the Los Angeles Chargers.</p><p><a href="https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-2022-free-agent-rankings-free-agency">Pro Football Focus</a> reports that Williams is known for his size, as well as his ability to win contested catches. Williams has four inches and 38 lbs on Smith, making the pair a perfect receiving duo.</p><p>All of the players that the Eagles bring in from the 2022 Free Agency should be young enough to work with the rebuild but experienced enough to bring established skills to the team.

They are trying to maximize their time with quarterback Jalen Hurts on a rookie contract and when teams are trying to do that they usually spend big in free agency. After all, once Hurts’ contract is up after the 2024 season, he will be in for a hefty raise and the Eagles will have $30-40 million less to spend on upgrades to the roster.</p><p>However, as mentioned before, the Eagles do not have the cap space that most of the other teams in similar quarterback circumstances have. Therefore, they must make do with the re-signing of a few of their restricted free agents instead of going “big fish” hunting come March. Here are the three players that the Eagles can make sure they bring back as they look to become champions of an NFC East division that was won by the Dallas Cowboys in 2021 but hasn’t seen a repeat champion in almost two decades.</p><p><b>*Watch NFL games LIVE with fuboTV (<a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/stream-nfl/">click for free trial</a>)*</b></p><h2>3 Eagles free-agents that they need to bring back</h2><p><b>3. Alex Singleton</b></p><p>Singleton is a 28-year-old former undrafted free agent and Canadian Football League (CFL) all-star that began the 2021 season as a starter before being demoted midway through the year and then being promoted to starter again by year’s end. Overall, Singleton played in 16 games, starting eight of them. Even though he did not grade out very impressively by most scouting metrics, he still lead the Eagles for the second straight season with 137 tackles. At worst, Singleton is going to be an asset for you as a backup linebacker that has usually been healthy and surely can also contribute on special teams if asked. Singleton can be brought back as long as the Eagles match any offer that is given to him.</p><p><b>2. Boston Scott</b></p><p>Scott, another undrafted free-agent turned contributor for the Eagles, is also due to be a restricted free agent in March. In 2021, Scott played in 16 games with four starts and ended up with 456 total yards and seven rushing touchdowns. The TD’s put him second on the team behind Jalen Hurts and that is why we are saying to bring him back. It is hard to find guys that consistently find the end zone and Scott showed a knack for that in 2021. Hopefully, for his sake, that was enough for the Eagles to offer up a decent contract or at the very least it will entice another team to sign Scott to a contract that they could match. That is all the Eagles would need to do because they own Scott’s restricted free agent rights.</p><p><b>1. Jason Kelce</b></p><p>Ok, so Kelce is technically classified as an exclusive rights free agent but that comes with a bit of a caveat in that the 2021 all-pro center turns 35 next season. If he is on the roster come June under his same contract, he will cost the team $30 million against the 2022 cap. That hit is untenable even for a team with a starting quarterback on a rookie deal. The deadline is meant to spur action between the two sides on a long-term contract. If the team cannot agree with Kelce, he may look to spend his last contract or two chasing a ring ala Andrew Whitworth when he went from the Cincinnati Bengals to the Los Angeles Rams at a similar age.</p><p> </p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He also threw two interceptions and was sacked twice.</p><p>Nevertheless, the Eagles took a step in the right direction with Hurts at the helm. He threw for over 3,000 yards during the regular season and had a 61% completion rate in his first campaign as a true starter. It is important to acknowledge however that he was playing with an injured ankle vs. Tampa, which certainly played a part in his struggles.</p><p>Hurts also formed a formidable partnership with rookie wideout and former teammate at Alabama, Devonta’ Smith. He led Philly with five receiving touchdowns and a team-high 64 receptions and 916 yards.

Plus, having over $13 million in cap space currently, they are likely able to make some moves this offseason to help improve their team.</p><h2>3 Fixes to help Philadelphia’s chances at winning Super Bowl 57</h2><p><b>3. Establish a healthy run/pass mix – and stick to it</b></p><p>Philadelphia entered the 2021 season with an eye towards establishing the passing attack as their main means of obtaining offensive success. But with Hurts and the offensive having too many instances of going stagnant, switching to an attack that focused on the run was what head coach Nick Sirianni and offensive coordinator Shane Steichen decided to ‘run’ with.</p><p>After that change was made, the Eagles were able to experience a much more impactful attack, helping turn Hurts into the bonafide QB1 that the team desperately needed him to be. But 2022 needs to be a year that sees the offense establish a healthy mix between both styles, focusing the offense to the team’s strengths while developing under aspects as supporting factors.</p><p><b>2. Go grab DeVonta Smith’s running mate – Garrett Wilson</b></p><p>Of all the ways to improve this team, addressing the offensive weaponry is most important, especially with how it would help keep Hurts on his ascension.</p><p>Having grabbed Alabama rookie DeVonta Smith <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl-draft-news-eagles-select-devonta-smith-with-no-10-pick/" rel="noopener">last draft,</a> the Eagles have found their bonafide WR1, but still are lacking in that area. Enter in Garrett Wilson.</p><p>One of the draft’s <a href="https://www.pff.com/news/draft-top-2022-nfl-draft-rankings-wide-receivers-garrett-wilson-chris-olave-drake-london-treylon-burks" rel="noopener">best overall wide receivers,</a> Wilson fits a similar mold to what Smith is, especially in terms of explosion, physique, and play style. Pairing Wilson with Smith certainly would lower the fantasy ceiling of both players, but it would be a great way to help improve an offense in desperate need of established passing-game weapons.</p><p><b>1. Address the defense through big-ticket free-agent signings</b></p><p>While the offense collects the headlines, it is the defense that has been <a href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2021/opp.htm" rel="noopener">the unsung hero</a> of this team this season, ranking in the top 10 in yards allowed, yards allowed per offensive play, rushing yards allowed, and rushing yards per attempt.</p><p>Supported by Darius Slay and Steven Nelson on the outside, this unit exceeded expectations, but still is in need of reinforcements. Plus, with DE Derek Barnett, FS Anthony Harris, and Nelson all <a href="https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/all/philadelphia-eagles/available/" rel="noopener">hitting the open market</a> this offseason, they will need to target their replacements.</p><p>DC Jonathan Gannon employs a multi-front unit that adapts to the offensive scheme more than utilizing its own, so looking at players like Chandler Jones and Marcus Maye could present PHI with a fresh look next season.</p><p>While Jones and Maye represent the big-ticket signings that could immediately vault this unit up into the top 5, they also represent huge financial commitments that this team may not be ready for. But if the Eagles want to become a constant threat in the NFC and threaten Dallas for the divisional crown, they need to take a jump into the big spender pool to try and make that happen.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

It turns out, however, that Eagles Nation didn’t only lose on the field, but off of it too. Multiple videos have emerged online of <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/cowboys-news-dallas-fan-socks-eagles-supporter-at-lincoln-financial-field/">fans getting into heated brawls</a> during the Eagles-Buccaneers matchup, most of which appeared to be initiated by Eagles fans. Well, despite being the aggravator in these incidents, Eagles fans, much like their team on Sunday, quickly discovered they were severely outmatched. In this first video, <a href="https://twitter.com/calicocutpant/status/1483162488212541442">shared by Twitter user @calicocutpant</a>, an Eagles fan can be seen walking up the stairs in the direction of a Bucs fan, throwing a punch, and immediately turning tail and sprinting back down the stairs.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="und"><a href="https://t.co/9vUclu7RWj" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/9vUclu7RWj</a></p><p>— You gotta give (@calicocutpant) <a href="https://twitter.com/calicocutpant/status/1483162488212541442?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">January 17, 2022</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p>The aggravator in this fight is wearing a Fletcher Cox jersey, but as soon as he throws his first punch he decides that he’s not about that life, and tries to flee to safety. In the process, he completely abandons his fellow Eagles fan, who managed to fling a Buccaneers supporter down a few rows of seats before disappearing into a sea of red jerseys.</p><p>As if that wasn’t enough of an L for Eagles fans, a second video emerged featuring another Eagles fan who bit off more than he could chew.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en"><a href="https://twitter.com/barstoolsports?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">@barstoolsports</a> Bucs v Eagles fight lol <a href="https://t.co/8MMIIzo0RW" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/8MMIIzo0RW</a></p><p>— Brandon Speth (@Brandon_Speth) <a href="https://twitter.com/Brandon_Speth/status/1482812074304618506?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">January 16, 2022</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p>This fan, who was wearing a Devonta Smith jersey, probably wished he could have channeled some of Smith’s sprint speed during his failed escape. It didn’t take long for the Buccaneers fan to catch up to him and deliver a swift beating before the pair were separated by security.</p><p>The final video shows an Eagles fan attempting to fight a large group of Buccaneers fans. Much like his fellow supporters, this fan gets absolutely mauled.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">On the scoreboard and the streets <a href="https://t.co/0mpnbZZS9K" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/0mpnbZZS9K</a></p><p>— DillyDillyFuckPhilly (@NotJasonLicht) <a href="https://twitter.com/NotJasonLicht/status/1482815052499632131?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">January 16, 2022</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p>There’s a chance this fan also got to spend some quality time with security as a result of his actions, as you can see a security guard approach him at the end of the video.</p><p>What a classy bunch Eagles fans are. It’s encouraging to see Eagles fans showing solidarity with the team, getting absolutely destroyed in the seats while their team got annihilated on the gridiron.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

It would be a questionable move to get rid of him because he did everything he could this season to help a club that wasn’t particularly talented reach the playoffs.</p><p>The Eagles might elect to take a quarterback with one of those three picks in this year’s draft and make it a battle with Hurts.

It wasn’t a good showing by the Eagles on either side of the ball, as quarterback Jalen Hurts turned the ball over twice and helped Philadelphia put just 15 points on the board in the disappointing loss. Hurts’ connection with talented rookie wide receiver DeVonta Smith, who didn’t seem to be on the same page as his quarterback, was dissected following the playoff loss. However, Smith got brutally honest about Hurts when asked about the signal-caller’s future as the Eagles’ QB1, <a href="https://twitter.com/DZangaroNBCS/status/1483145377905848325?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1483145377905848325%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fclutchpoints.com%2Fwp-admin%2Fpost.php%3Fpost%3D1614663action%3Dedit">via Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports</a>.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">"I think he's going to be that guy."</p><p>— DeVonta Smith on whether or not Jalen Hurts has earned the trust of the Eagles organization to be the QB going forward</p><p>— Dave Zangaro (@DZangaroNBCS) <a href="https://twitter.com/DZangaroNBCS/status/1483145377905848325?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">January 17, 2022</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p><a href="https://fanatics.93n6tx.net/gb63a0">Eagles</a> wide receiver DeVonta Smith didn’t hold back when asked about Jalen Hurts’ future as the franchise’s starting quarterback.

They were not expected to be in the playoffs this season.

Regardless of the situation at hand, Evans continued to find success in weaving into open space on the field to create chaos against the Eagles secondary.</p><p>Even as tight end Rob Gronkowski has only been teammates with Evans for a mere two seasons, he has been much <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKQHQz50_8w" rel="noopener">impressed</a> with not only the receiver’s play on the field but also his sheer professionalism as a teammate.</p><blockquote>“What makes him so impressive is his consistency,” Gronkowski said in his post-game press conference. “He’s super selfless.“It’s an honor to be his teammate.”</blockquote><p>With Chris Godwin (torn ACL) and Antonio Brown (cut) not available for the Buccaneers’ playoff run, the team has needed Evans to up his play – and he has done just that as of late. Overall, the veteran wideout has recorded 253 receiving yards and four receiving touchdowns in Tampa Bay’s last three games.</p><p>Reigning Super Bowl 55 MVP winner Tom Brady sure will call upon Evans plenty of times in the NFC divisional round next week.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Brady targeted Evans 10 times in the contest, and the veteran wideout came away with nine receptions for 117 receiving yards and one touchdown.</p><p>The nine receptions for Evans set a new single-game Buccaneers playoff <a href="https://twitter.com/BuccaneersComms/status/1482817159126560781?s=20" rel="noopener">record</a>, which sure helps his case to be the most prolific wide receiver to ever feature for Tampa Bay.</p><p>Even as his teammates have lauded him for his potent showing against the Eagles, Evans <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsGEJWI--Gg" rel="noopener">sees</a> that this performance was essentially just another game in his career.</p><blockquote>“I did decent,” Evans said in his post-game press conference.</blockquote><p>Brady also saw several other offensive talents elevate their overall <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nfl/tampa-bay-buccaneers" rel="noopener">play</a> against the Eagles. For one, Giovani Bernard tallied for 83 yards from scrimmage, as the Eagles front seven had quite a difficult time in attempting to contain the versatile running back.</p><p>As noted, the Buccaneers offense has seen plenty of turnaround over the campaign. Thus, Brady sure will need Evans to remain as his most reliable target for the rest of the playoffs if they aspire to pull off another run to the Super Bowl.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
