Summary
Philadelphia football fans have a complicated relationship with Eagles GM Howie Roseman. After building the team that won Philadelphia its first ever Super Bowl back in 2018, he was a hero. Then, just a few years later, he was seen as a problem. And now, with the Eagles looking like Super Bowl contenders, he’s a hero once again. The Athletic’s Zach Berman has covered Roseman and the Eagles for over a decade, and today he breaks down the team-building strategies that Roseman has used recently to rebuild the Eagles -- and his own reputation. Plus, what to watch for when the Eagles take on the Giants in the NFL Divisional Round on Saturday night.
Guest: Zach Berman, The Athletic
