The Philadelphia Eagles avoid being fined and stripped of draft picks for alleged tampering charges.
The Philadelphia Eagles were found not guilty of tampering with former Giants running back Saquon Barkley before his contract with New York expired.
“After a thorough review of the Philadelphia Eagles signing of Saquon Barkley, the NFL today informed the club that the investigation did not discover sufficient evidence to support a finding that the Anti-Tampering Policy was violated,” the league said in a written statement. “In coming to this conclusion, the league reviewed phone logs, text messages, and other documents related to Philadelphia’s free agency strategy and decision to sign Barkley. The NFL also interviewed several members of the organization, including Howie Roseman and Nick Sirianni, as well as Barkley and Penn State head coach James Franklin.”
The Eagles, who eventually signed Barkley to a three-year, $37.75 million deal, first landed on the NFL’s radar when Franklin, who remains close with Barkley, a Penn State alumnus, indicated Philly“ said that was one of the first things that Howie said to him on the phone as part of his sales pitch,” Franklin said. “Not only the Philadelphia Eagles and that but also the connection with Penn State and the fan base as well. So just a really cool opportunity.
Had the Eagles been found guilty of tampering with Barkley, they would have been fined and docked draft picks like the Atlanta Falcons,Patricia Traina has covered the New York Giants for over three decades for various media outlets.
