D.J. Fluker was once the No. 1 overall pick in the first round of the 2013 NFL draft by the team formerly known as the San Diego Chargers. After spending his first few seasons in the league with the Chargers, Fluker became a journeyman. Now, he gets a shot at a return to the NFL.
Since 2013, he has been signed to seven different franchises. His last three destinations were all brief stints on the practice squads or preseason rosters. Fluker’s last time on an active roster was in 2020 with the Baltimore Ravens.
NFL Network’s Ian Rapport recently revealed that Fluker will be working out with the Philadelphia Eagles. As a franchise, the Eagles are no strangers to drafting or picking up former Alabama standouts, so this could be a perfect match.
DJ Fluker, who has not played in an NFL game since 2020, is working out for the #Eagles today, source said. https://t.co/jAdDNvsImi
