Alliance... » The Eagles can cut him and owe him no further money.

With DeSean Jackson on the way to Philadelphia Jerome Brown Jerseys 2019 , could Nelson Agholor be on the way out?We noted last month that the Eagles have a decision to make on Agholor, who has a base salary of $9.387 million this season. Jackson and Agholor could certainly coexist in the Eagles’ offense, but with DeSean Jackson’s $10 million cap hit now coming on the books along with Alshon Jeffery‘s $14.725 million cap hit, that’s an awful lot of money to spend at the wide receiver position. The Eagles may decide that Agholor needs to either take a pay cut or get cut.If Agholor gets cut, he’ll be an unrestricted free agent, and there will certainly be a market for a 25-year-old who started all 16 games for a playoff team last year. But maybe not a big enough market for Agholor to make more money than he would with the Eagles.

Original story below.Malcolm Jenkins has skipped the entirety of the Eagles’ voluntary offseason workout program for the first time in his career and now the veteran safety is expected to miss Philadelphia’s mandatory minicamp as well. NFL insider Adam Schefter previously reported he doesn’t expect Jenkins to be at minicamp and now Howard Eskin is also saying the same thing. Eskin adds that Jenkins is looking for “a hefty raise to his deal.”It was already assumed that Jenkins was skipping workouts due to contract demands. The new language here is that Jenkins’ demands are “hefty.” Of course, that’s a subjective term that leaves us guessing. Perhaps Jenkins is looking to make top five safety money in terms of annual value? And/or more fully guaranteed money? Chart via Over The Cap:Jenkins has a legitimate case that he’s significantly underpaid. Just take a look at his comparative production:And those stats don’t account for Jenkins’ value as one of the most important team leaders. Not to mention his willingness to play multiple positions and even contribute on special teams. Jenkins missing mandatory practices — and being subject to fines in the process — is a clear sign that he’s serious about wanting more money. Here’s how much Jenkins stands to lose by skipping minicamp:Jenkins will be subject to even more fines if his absence continues through Eagles training camp Reggie White Jerseys 2019 , which begins in late July. Every missed training camp practice will cost Jenkins $40,000. He’ll also be docked one week of his regular season salary for every preseason game missed. I’d think the Eagles will find a way to work out something with Jenkins prior to training camp. He’s too important to their operation to have him disgruntled and absent. With Rodney McLeod on the mend, Philadelphia’s current first team safeties are Andrew Sendejo and Tre Sullivan. Deiondre’ Hall is lining up as the team’s third safety in big nickel packages. That’s just not ideal; none of those players are even stone cold locks to make the roster. With this in mind, Jenkins has some leverage. The Eagles have leverage of their own since they can opt not to give Jenkins a raise and wait for him to return to practice while his fines rack up. Ultimately, I don’t think the Eagles playing hardball with Jenkins for an extended period is a great look. Failing to reward him sets a bad precedent. I mean, what kind of message does it send when you won’t take care of a player who has: barely missed any playing time since joining the Eagles in 2014 Black Mike Quick Jerseys , been a vocal team leader while guiding the team through adversity, been willing to play multiple positions, made a positive impact in the community, and so on. If you’re the Eagles, don’t you want to signal to your young players that if you go out and be like Jenkins — who has gone way above and beyond the call of duty — you’ll be fairly rewarded? The Eagles need to do the right thing and make Jenkins happy.
