Back in Philly, it feels more like 2006 than 2016, at least in the way that training camp is structured. Here is what Fletcher Cox told NFL.com’s Judy Battista:
"It's really, really different," Pro Bowl DT Fletcher Cox said. "Everything is different except we're not at Lehigh. It's the same as from 2012."
Doug Pederson has his own style at the podium, and he isn’t nearly as succinct as Reid was during his time here. At Chiefs training camp, though, there was someone who mastered his style:
From the real Big Red: "That's my cue, good looking. Come on, beautiful. Go get you a hamburger."
Personally, I’ll take Joe Conklin’s impression over this guy’s every day of the week, but he certainly does have the look down pat.
