Vinny Curry turned a Super Bowl appearance with the Eagles into a big-time three-year, $27 million free-agent deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Curry was eventually cut and released by the Bucs, allowing him to return to the Eagles on a one-year deal. After having a solid 2019 season, Curry isn’t prepared to chase the big bucks in free agency, stating that he’d like to return to the Eagles next season.
“This is where home is,” Curry said as a guest of the Sports Bash. “You’ve got the most passionate fans in the world, ya got to love it.”
“You’d like to think in free agency, the Eagles would want me back,” Curry stated. “When free agency starts, I’ll be hoping to hear from them.”
Curry registered four of his five sacks on the season after Week 12 and he could provide the Eagles with a talented presence on the defensive line capable of playing end or defensive tackle. The Eagles and GM Howie Roseman have talked about getting younger, so it’ll be interesting to see where Curry fits in the long-term plans.
