Report: Darrelle Revis Targeted by Eagles as General Manager Howie Roseman Puts Together Trade Offer

by Doug Kyed on Sun, Mar 10, 2013 at 2:25PM

Darrelle Revis could be changing shades of green next season.

Rumors abound that the New York Jets are frantically shopping their star cornerback. One team that’s rumored to be interested is the Philadelphia Eagles, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. Jeff McLane reports Eagles general manager Howie Roseman is putting an offer together to bring Revis to Philadelphia.

The Eagles are a good fit. They have salary-cap space and a hole at cornerback. Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie is a free agent and Nnamdi Asomugha will likely be released after March 12.

McLane suggests the Eagles could give up their second-round pick in 2013 and a future selection. The Eagles would then have to extend Revis once the trade is complete. Revis is coming off a torn ACL that cost him most of the 2012 season.
