Alshon Jeffery ‘not likely’ to be traded

Adam Schefter joined 97.5 The Fanatic in Philadelphia Wednesday morning and said in regards to rumors that WR Alshon Jeffery could be traded, “I don’t see Alshon getting traded, I see him staying in Philadelphia.” (97.5 The Fanatic on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Schefter went on to pose the question, “in these uncertain financial times, would you want to take that 10 million dollar risk on a guy like Alshon right now?” It’s an interesting question and a good point he makes, and in addition to the hefty price tag, Jeffery also comes with some health risks as well in a time when teams cannot fully vet a guy’s medical situation. He’s coming off a season in which he only played 10 games due to a Lisfranc foot injury. Jeffery is reportedly recovering well from the injury, but it seems “unlikely” any team is willing to take on the risk of a $10M contract for a 30-year old WR with a recent history of injuries.
