The latest on key cornerbacks from around the NFL:
- The Jets remain zeroed in on James Bradberry, but they’re also in the hunt for a second free agent cornerback. That search could lead them to Desmond Trufant, Connor Hughes of The Athletic tweets. Trufant will be cut loose by at Atlanta this week.
- The Dolphins are among the clubs that have discussed impending Dallas free agent Byron Jones, Josina Anderson of ESPN.com (on Twitter) hears. You can add Miami to the list of previously reported suitors for Jones, which includes the Jets, Raiders, and Eagles.
- More from Anderson (via Twitter), who notes that the Bills are now in on veteran Chris Harris. They join the Cowboys, Bills, Jets, Raiders, and other clubs in search of the experienced secondary help that Harris would provide.
I’d like to see Trufant in a Eagles uniform….he’ll be 30 this Season,and they’re trying to get younger,so it’s unlikely.Still would be a nice addition to that secondary though.
Trufant’s DB coach is now coaching for the Eagles, so we may have an inside shot at him. The Eagles need to get active on the trade front. We have 10 picks and have 6 big holes to fill. Use some of these picks for players. Hopkins got moved for a joke return. Diggs is in play, Slay is in play, the Lions want Jalen Mills. The other holes we can fill via Free agency. Safety, 2-LB, another CB, Pass rusher, WR.
