Eagles GM says offseason could be challenging

Philadelphia is the reigning Super Bowl champion, but its general manager Howie Rosman said the offseason could be challenging. The Eagles have several key players as pending free agents, which is a major issue.

“I’m not asking anyone to feel sorry for us,” Roseman said at the NFL Scouting Combine on Tuesday, via NBC Sports. “We have challenges because we have a lot of good players and we have long-term contracts with a lot of our players who are in their prime.

"My expectations aren’t that we’re going to have to lose a lot of players and that means that there are excuses for next season. It’s just, it’s going to look different.”

The Eagles already extended Saquon Barkley and signed Zack Baun to a massive extension.
