Kiss Sheldon Brown goodbye.
The disgruntled Eagles cornerback just committed the cardinal sin. He showed up Andy Reid and the brass down at NovaCare Nation.
Last we heard from Brown, he was complaining about the way he was being treated by the Eagles, and that he either wanted his contract redone or a trade.
But at the same time the starting corner also indicated he planned to be a good soldier, to go about his job and not make waves.
That ended yesterday.
Brown apparently took the “voluntary” aspect of the Birds voluntary organized team activity literally. He was a no-show yesterday for the final mini-camp before the team heads off to training camp at Lehigh.
Andy Reid did not look especially happy about it as he talked through clenched teeth.
“Sheldon is doing what Sheldon thinks he needs to do,” Reid said.
Now the Eagles will do what they think they need to do. Anyone remember Lito Sheppard?
The Birds traded for Ellis Hobbs, who was unhappy himself in New England before the Eagles picked him up in a deal.
Hobbs was taking Brown’s snaps yesterday.
Just another day in the never-ending saga of “How the Eagles Turn.”
