Jadeveon Clowney is interested in signing with the Eagles and Howie Roseman must get it done

Star pass-rusher Jadeveon Clowney has interest in joining the Eagles

Here we are in early July and standout pass-rusher Jadeveon Clowney is still a free agent waiting to sign a contract with a team in need of a stud defensive end. Could that team end up being the Philadelphia Eagles?

Per a report, Clowney has interest in multiple organizations, including the boys from the City of Brotherly Love. If the Eagles are serious about winning the NFC East again and making a push for a deep postseason run in the prime of Carson Wentz’s career, the front office needs to go out and land Clowney.

Signing Jadeveon Clowney should be a priority for the Philadelphia Eagles

General manager Howie Roseman is a magician when it comes to making great deals and moves for the Eagles. Things should be no different here. While Philly won’t be able to afford to sign Clowney to a monster, multi-year deal, why not go get him for a one-year prove-it kind of contract?

Clowney’s market has significantly shrunk, and there’s no chance he’s going to get a four or five-year deal. However, if the dollars are right, the Eagles could bring him in on a short-term deal in 2020, which is the expectation for the kind of contract Clowney will end up signing.

The Seahawks are obviously also interested in bringing Clowney back, as the 6-5, 255-pounder is coming off a 2019 in which he posted 31 tackles, three sacks and an interception returned for a touchdown.

For Clowney, of course he cares about the money, but it looks like the priority for him is to join a competitive team. The Eagles have the pieces to make plenty of noise in the NFC, but are a couple parts away from really sending themselves over the top.

Adding a guy like Clowney would make the defense even stronger and instill plenty of fear into the Dallas Cowboys. It’d be a win-win for both parties. All eyes are now on Roseman. Let’s see if he can get something done.
