Philadelphia Eagles roundup: Birds are road favorites, Josh Andrews
The Philadelphia Eagles are Week 4 favorites, and Josh Andrews is signed as a practice squad center. It’s all here on ‘The Roundup’.
Ladies and gentlemen, Josh Andrews is back with the Philadelphia Eagles. We’ll discuss that more in a second. First, let’s talk about some Week 4 odds and how they relate to ‘The Birds’ and their next challenge of the season.
You can’t ask for much more than a 2-1 record after three weeks in the mighty NFL. Sure, being undefeated would have been nice, but the Philadelphia Eagles, who have been undermanned all season, have shown some grit and toughness edging out a tough Atlanta Falcons team in Week 1 and outlasting a spirited Indianapolis Colts team just this past Sunday.
That may be why they’re being seen by the oddsmakers as favorites over the Tennessee Titans in Week 4. According to Sportsbook Review, they’re anywhere from a three-point to a four-point favorite. This was the case when the odds were checked at around noon on Tuesday.
We’ll all be watching the lines as kickoff approaches so we can keep you updated.
Josh Andrews returns.
As mentioned, Philly tweaked their practice squad roster for what seems like the 200th time on Tuesday. They’ve added center Josh Andrews, and they’ve released center Jon Toth to free up the necessary space to do so. The news came shortly after breakfast on the East Coast.
Take a look:
Andrews is a familiar face, especially if you’re like us and sat through four grueling preseason games. He was originally signed by that former Eagles coach who shall remain nameless back in 2014. You know the one, the guy that preceded current Eagles head coach Doug Pederson.
Since that time, he’s kept pretty close ties to the Eagles’ brass. He played his college ball with the Oregon State Beavers. Week 4 is upon us, and it’s business as usual in Philly.
