That is one well dressed homeless man.

The man. The myth. The legend.

Mosquitoes don't bite him, purely out of respect.

QuoteThe Philadelphia Eagles will ask cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha to restructure his contract or they will release him, league sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The two sides are meeting Friday in Indianapolis at the scouting combine. Asomugha is scheduled to make $15 million, $4 million of which is guaranteed.

He's pretty useless here, at almost any price. Either his confidence or his body is shot. Either way, he sucks.

ice grillin you

i dont even care about his play...hes gotta go because of his i dont give a farg attitude i got my big deal....hes THE representative of the hideous culture that has permeated the locker room over the last two years...would make absolutely no sense to bring him back when you just began a new era of eagle football with chipper

shtein needs to be turned over not restructured
i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

im the board pharmacist....always one step above yous

Zanshin

There's truth to that. But if he was as awesome as advertised, the attitude would be a lot easier to tolerate. If he didn't suck you wouldn't even have a chance to be bothered by his attitude. The problem is he doesn't seem to care that he sucks.

Good riddance.  He can blame Kurt Coleman on his way out of the Novacare Complex.

There's plenty of corners out there that can be signed for the vet minimum and get beat just as badly.  He'll take the restructured deal because it's still probably better than anything he'd get on the open market, but I really don't see why the Eagles are making the offer in the first place.  Bad cornerbacks are a dime a dozen.

especially when you consider the fact that the zesty safeties basically magnify his weaknesses even more.

I came home from work, saw this thread unread and hoped for good news.

Alas, no news of any kind, just gossip.

Get free of this guy and move on.

Nnamdi made #2 on the top 10 list of biggest busts in Philly sports history.  The little caption that goes along with his picture sums it up nicely.

QuoteWhen his contract with Oakland was nullified in 2011, Nnamdi Asomugha - a Pro Bowler, All-Pro, All-Decade cornerback - arrived in Philadelphia and naturally lost any and all evidence that he was a professional football player; but not before signing a $60 million contract.
