Huh

If he wants to be here and don't cause any distractions than good.  But I hope he doesn't have a down year because if he does you best believe this will get brought back up.  Hopefully he is training his [BLEEP] off like the rest of the team and becomes the shutdown corner he was a couple years ago.  The good thing is we got a great leader on the most important position in football in Foles.  The defense is in desperate need of a leader after Poz left.  Campbell is one but the D plays behind him so it's hard to help.  I'm hoping Jack takes that next step as a leader this year and turns this into his defense

Honestly where is Telvin in all this? He played it smart.  Jalen acts like he was singled out and Tom said his name

If he has a down year it won't be because he missed some weightlifting with the team Vs doing it on his own. 

Yeah Foles's leadership is one of the big benefits of him being here, I think lack of leadership at the most important position can hurt every single part of the team, especially on game day itself.

I wasn't really a fan when they signed Coughlin on to run the team to begin with. I do think he's out of touch (and it didn't take long to see that, aka Fournette) and he hasn't done much to change anybody's mind. I don't care what he did with the Giants 10+ years ago. Today's NFL isn't the same.

And what you and Coughlin seem to be missing is that this is voluntary. As well as the fact that Jalen has trained with his father and brother in Nashville his entire life. Every off season. This isn't something new he just started doing as a jab to the team... His teammates fully support him and know he'll be back when its time.

This is the biggest non issue we could possibly have and Coughlin made it one by opening his mouth when it didn't need to be opened.

Wow how completely selfish of them... They aren't team players and they don't support the team.

Eric stop being obtuse.  Is there anyone on the planet that thinks Jalen will not be ready for game 1?  

There is something about shared experience, pain and suffering that draws you closer.  Does being here on April 17 make you a better player?  No, emphatically no.  It does however make you a better member of the team.  THAT is what the old [BLEEP] clown is trying to get across.

They can do all of that in the mandatory sessions and usually brutal camp we have done the last two years
