Mark Ingram

Age: 29

Last Team: New Orleans Saints

Mark Ingram just wrapped up his eighth season in the NFL. As he’s been with the New Orleans Saints for that entire time, I’m genuinely not sure if Ingram would even consider Philadelphia to be an ideal landing spot. I know that the NFL is a business at the end of the day, but for whatever reason, Ingram hates the Eagles. Remember all the subliminal shots he and Alvin Kamara kept throwing towards Philly throughout the past season?

It’s a weird scenario, but it could play a factor in Free Agency. While Ingram would be a solid fit for the Eagles by playing a power-back type of role, I just can’t imagine him actually entertaining the idea of playing for the Eagles. Obviously, dollar signs could change his mind, but the Eagles would have to really think long and hard about whether he would be alright in the locker room or not.
