National reaction to the Eagles signing veteran WR Julio Jones to a deal

We’re looking at the national reaction to the Philadelphia #Eagles signing Julio Jones to a deal ahead of the Week 7 matchup against the Miami Dolphins

The Eagles aren’t big on standing pat, and with the offense struggling to get production out of the third wide receiver spot, the team has signed veteran wide receiver Julio Jones to the practice squad according to Ian Rapoport.

Jones has played 29 games with three teams over the past three seasons because of injuries.

The 34-year-old wideout will likely work out of the slot once he gets elevated from the practice squad, and he’s here to help Philadelphia land another ring while securing one of his own.

He joins a talented Philadelphia receiver corps without the pressure of being a primary weapon—one more shot at a ring.

With the big news stirring up social media, here’s the national reaction.

Eagles OC Brian Johnson takes the blame for Jalen Hurts’ final INT in loss to Jets

#Eagles OC Brian Johnson addressed the media on Tuesday, discussing run-pass ratio; while also taking the blame for Jalen Hurts’ final interception

Brian Johnson was promoted to the offensive coordinator position following Shane Steichen’s departure to Indianapolis, and through six games at the helms, he’s started to face severe criticism.

Some pundits blame Philadelphia’s loss on three Jalen Hurts’ interceptions, while others around the league and in the fanbase believe that Johnson has left a lot to be desired at this point.

One growing criticism is the lack of second-half rushing attempts by a team that has been one or two rushing yards over the past few years.

The Eagles ran the ball 22 times on Sunday and went away from the run late in regulation when Jalen Hurts had his turnovers.

On Tuesday, head coach Nick Sirianni was a guest on Sports Radio 94 WIP and gave insight into the offense while praising Johnson’s play-calling.

Sirianni gave Johnson a vote of confidence, and on Tuesday afternoon, Johnson addressed the run-pass ratio and Hurts’ final interception in the loss to the New York Jets.
