Chris Long on returning to the Eagles in 2019: “I’m pretty undecided, but from the looks of things they’re going to make it hard for me in my favorite city”

There’s been plenty of speculation the past couple of months whether Eagles’ DE Chris Long would ultimately retire this offseason, or decide to return to Philadelphia for the 2019 season.

He’s stayed relatively consistent throughout the process, avoiding any kind of declarative statements, and maintaining that he’d like to see what the roster looks like after the draft before deciding.

“I’m pretty undecided, but from the looks of things they’re going to make it hard for me in my favorite city,” Long told USA TODAY after hosting a town hall meeting for the Players Coalition at George Mason University’s Arlington campus.
