Just three minutes after NFL Free Agency opened, Alshon Jefferey made his decision to leave the Chicago Bears and join the Philadelphia Eagles, signing a 1-year $14 million dollar deal.
Jefferey was then quick to say why he made his decision:
“It was the best decision for me and my family. Also, it’s a great situation,” he told CSN Philly. “[Carson Wentz] had a lot to do with my decision. He’s a great quarterback. I mean, the sky’s the limit for him, I think he’s going to be a future MVP.”
Well, OK then.
H/t to Terez Owens for this, haha.
