Three different times Troy Aikman considered playing again after he was released by the Cowboys. And one of those times, the potential landing spot was the hated Philadelphia Eagles.
In a Thursday interview with KTCK-AM (1310) The Ticket, Aikman detailed how he almost quit his broadcasting job at Fox to suit up for Philly after Donovan McNabb was lost for the 2002 season.
"So I retired, got into broadcasting. Then it was two years later when I got a call from Andy Reid in the middle of a game that I was broadcasting after Donovan McNabb had broken his leg," Aikman said.
