So the eagles are hard at work at their first week of practice since the draft today for the first time they spoke to the media we heard from players as well as chip kelly who responded to criticism from former player lesean mccoy. Chip not worried about perceptions about what anyone says about himself or his players and new faces from sam bradford to tim tebow and Demarco Murray but everybody is talking about the guy that is no longer here, lesean mccoy, before the eagles took the field for practice chip kelly the eagles head coach defending himself against the comments and harsh allegations lesean mccoy made earlier this month. When mccoy said kelly got rid of the black players first. Chip is not hurt by the common but is not worried about mccoy. In that situation i think he is wrong we look at the characters and factors that go into selection and retention of players and color is not one of them. I have not even anything where race had an issue and i dont think anybody else here has either. Not something that we talk about or we are dealing with. Mccoy is gone, and a lot of new faces tim tebow getting a lot of attention seeing him in an eagles jersey for the first time.
