The league has been investigating potential impermissible contact between the Eagles and Saquon Barkley.
PHILADELPHIA - Things are reportedly coming to a head with the NFL's tampering investigation of the Eagles stemming from an off-the-cuff remark by Penn State football coach James Franklin after Philadelphia signed free-agent running back Saquon Barkley to a three-year, $37.75 million contract in free agency.on whether the Eagles and the Atlanta Falcons violated tampering rules during the legal negotiating window regarding Barkley and veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins.
"For him now to come back and be able to play within the state, in Philadelphia, he said that was one of the first things that Howie said to him on the phone as part of his sales pitch to him was not only the Philadelphia Eagles and that but obviously the connection with Penn State and the fan base as well,” Franklin said.
“There's great people here. And it's not just the football team,” Cousins said. “I mean, I'm looking at the support staff. Meeting -- calling, yesterday, calling our head athletic trainer, talking to our head of PR I'm thinking, we got good people here. And that's exciting to be a part of." Notably, one NFL source from the New York side told SI.com’s Eagles Today that Philadelphia’s interest in Barkley was well-known throughout the league and dated back to last year when the Eagles were hoping the Giants would not put the franchise tag on the former Penn State star.
The actual mistake by the Cards was procedural: failing to adhere to league rules and waiting until after the Super Bowl to contact Gannon about an eventual interview. Fangio, then a consultant with the Eagles, had already agreed to become the DC in Miami on the day of the NFC Championship Game.
