I guess it'll be a sharefest at some point now.

Dion Lewis better see more time in the offense

Maybe Javid Best's injury is more significant than previously thought. Or maybe the Eagles are still pissed at Brown for throwing away the game against the Niners

 

[Ray_Dogg]

They wanted a big back all along to pair with Best. Reason they drafted LeShoure. Problem is he got hurt.

Little off topic but the Eagles previously acquired Jerome Harrison from the Browns last October for Mike Bell.

Ronnie isn't exactly a big back.

Not really an upgrade IMO for the Lions but for philly they get a bruiser for the short yardage plays...

was this trade voided?

I'm sorry to hear about the guy's brain tumor.

But, It's kinda funny for Ronnie Brown. How awkward is that going to be for him? Hey guys, I'm back even though you don't want me around anymore.

Jerome Harrison has brain tumor | ProFootballTalk

The proposed trade of running back Jerome Harrison to Philadelphia was voided because Harrison was found to have a brain tumor.

ESPN;s Adam Schefter breaks the news and points out that the failed trade could be a blessing in disguise for Harrison. Without the trade, Harrison wouldn't have taken a physical that revealed the tumor.

This helps explain how Harrison wasn;t on the injury report last week: The Lions had no idea.

Hopefully Harrison caught this early and can treat it aggressively now. Our thoughts are with Harrison and we wish him good health.

This trade could of saved his life....god bless him and his family and i hope he fully recovers!!

It ain't funny for Harrison though. the trade got voided because the doctors found out he has a brain tumor during the physical exam.
