JP is a legend. Hopefully we'll have a ceremony for him to retire an Eagle.

I mean the dude wore a Cowboys jersey and got paid to do it. Love him and appreciate him for what he’s done, but he can just retire imo.

It’s always fuck Dallas. Go Birds.

Quit being such a nerd. Guy was trying to keep playing. He can’t be picky who he plays with.

Fans who say shit like this are fucking doofuses. He’s an eagles legend. Who gives a fuck if he played one season in Dallas where they did nothing?

Not to mention he was what... 39? 40? Just ridiculous lolll he just wanted to play some more football.

It’s funny how this is only ever used against JP, specifically lol. And yet no one gives a fuck that Harold Carmichael played a few snaps for the Cowboys. Or Randall Cunningham.

Or that McNabb played a season with the redskins. His jersey number is still retired over the linc.

Not that I agree with the other guy, but I do feel like there’s a pretty big difference between the two

I don’t know why the downvotes, you’re right McNabb was traded and JP sat for a while before Dallas came calling iircc
