Eagles players refer to Twatkins as a "con man"

Well, he did get US$ 6,500,000 of Jeffrey Lurie's money.

Interesting piece on MMBQ.SI.com about everyone's favorite first-round firefighter, Danny Watkins. The story paints a largely sympathetic portrait of Watkins as a guy who always wanted to fight fires and got sidetracked by football. Teammates I spoke to earlier this season had a less charitable view, a couple using the term "con man." In the story, former Eagles offensive-line coach Howard Mudd is quoted as calling his failure to unlock Watkins' talent Mudd's "biggest failure." Eagles center Jason Kelce said yesterday: "I'm not sure there was that much Howard Mudd could have done there." Teammates said they have had no contact with Watkins since he was cut in training camp in 2013.

I could't even bring myself to read the SI article. Fuck that guy. Glad Les set the record straight.
