<div>Impending free agent S/CB Walter Thurmond does not expect to be back with the Eagles.
"They only have $17 million in cap space," Thurmond said. "Economically it doesn’t make sense for them. I would love to be here. I love playing here. But that’s the way it is." Thurmond excelled in his first season as a safety, racking up 71 tackles, three interceptions and a fumble recovery which probably should have been ruled an interception. More importantly, Thurmond played 16 games for the first time in his career. Hybrid S/CBs are of growing importance in the NFL, and Thurmond showed he could play the position well. He should have plenty of interest.

<p style="margin-left:60px;font-family:arial, sans-serif;color:rgb(51,51,51);">(28, 5-11, 190)

<p style="margin-left:60px;font-family:arial, sans-serif;color:rgb(51,51,51);">The former Seattle Seahawks cornerback was converted to free safety this past season and flourished (71 tackles, 2 sacks, 2 forced fumbles and three interceptions). The Jaguars could use help at free safety and at cornerback and Thurmond has shown he can play both and have success. Thurmond played for Gus Bradley at the beginning of his NFL career and could be tempted to reunite with his former coach with a solid contract. Thurmond isn't likely to return to the Eagles with Chip Kelly and Billy Davis moving on, so Thurmond will test the market. Will the Jaguars bite?
