Eagles Stack the D-Line With Acquisition of Bears Pro Bowl DE Robert Quinn

Another blockbuster hit the NFL on Wednesday when the undefeated Eagles pushed their chips all in and acquired DE Robert Quinn from the Bears. Philly gave up a 4th-round pick in next year’s draft to nab the three-time pro bowler from Chicago, effectively adding another piece to their already dangerous defense. Quinn had 18.5 sacks a year ago, but he has just one sack in 2022. It’s just another example of how Eagles GM Howie Roseman has used his excess of draft picks to build a dominant roster. The deal marked the fifth trade in the last week as the NFL nears next week’s trade deadline. More deals are coming…
