The Philadelphia Eagles made some changes to the practice squad on Thursday morning but the team isn’t done tweaking things just yet. NFL agent Brett Tessler recently tweeted that his client Josh Andrews will be returning to Philly next week.Andrews originally joined the Eagles as an undrafted rookie free agent out of Oregon State following the 2014 NFL Draft. He spent his rookie season on the practice squad before then making the 53-man roster in both 2015 and 2016. Andrews spent the 2017 season back on the practice squad before leaving the Eagles to sign a futures contract with the Minnesota Vikings one week after Philadelphia’s Super Bowl win. It was a little curious to see Andrews leave Philly since practice squad players usually just sign futures/reserve deals with the team they finished the year on. Perhaps former Eagles quarterback coach and current Vikings offensive coordinator John DeFilippo convinced Andrews he’d have a better opportunity at making the team in Minnesota.Unfortunately for Andrews Color Rush Nate Gerry Jersey , that didn’t end up being the case. He was waived with an injury settlement after hurting his ankle in the preseason. Andrews’ return could be bad news for current Eagles practice squad member Jon Toth. Andrews is a guard/center type and Toth only really plays at center. It’s interesting that Andrews’ agent noted his client will be back on the 53-man roster soon. Why would the Eagles need to add another center/guard when they already seemingly have enough bodies there?One explanation could be that the Eagles plan to trade or cut Chance Warmack, who has been a healthy scratch for the first two games. It’s pretty silly the Eagles are carrying his $2.03 million cap number just so he can be inactive on game day. It’s worth noting that trading Warmack would free up $1.66 million. Maybe the Eagles can move him in exchange for some fringe wide receiver. In addition to bringing Andrews back, the Eagles worked out four free agent guards earlier this week. It clearly seems like there’s another shoe to drop at that position. The New Orleans Saints had their best offensive output against the defending Super Bowl Champion Philadelphia Eagles in their 48-7 win back in Week 11. In fact, their 546 yards of offense was their best dating back to November of 2016.Not everything has been rainbows and lollipops for the Saints’ offense. Football Outsiders highlighted the Saints recent struggles in their NFC Divisional Round Preview.That regression has been tied to a drop off in production and effectiveness from future Hall of Fame quarterback Drew Brees.Drew Brees, Weeks 1-11: 76.4% completion, 8.8 yards per attempt Color Rush Chris Long Jersey , 29 touchdowns, 2 interceptions, 127.3 QB RatingDrew Brees, Weeks 12-16: 69.2% completion, 6.4 yards per attempt, 3 touchdowns Color Rush Jake Elliott Jersey , 3 interceptions, 84.7 QB RatingAs always with quarterbacks stats there are several factors to consider. The Saints have lacked a solid number two receiver, but have recently gotten back deep threat Ted Ginn Jr. They’ll not only use him as a deep threat, but will also work him as an intermediate target in vertical stretching three-man route combinations.That could be trouble for an Eagles’ defense that allowed 8 explosive passing plays against the Saints. Not all is the same for them either though, as their struggles with injuries in the defensive backfield are well documented.To help paint a better picture of what’s going on with the Saints, I spoke with two analysts I trust. The first is my usual host on The QB Scho Show Youth Cameron Johnston Jersey , Mark Schofield. The next was Seth Galina, who knows the Saints’ offense inside and out.You can listen to their thoughts on the matter by lending your ears to The QB Scho Show #10!
