Multiple NFL insiders have now suggested that the Philadelphia Eagles could be the team that trades for Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields.
Not as a starter, obviously. But as a backup to Jalen Hurts.
The rumors began on Monday:
Interesting nugget from @MoveTheSticks on @nflnetwork just now. If the price drops dramatically, would the #eagles be interested in Justin Fields as a dynamic athletic backup to Jalen Hurts?

They continued on Tuesday afternoon with a conversation between Rich Eisen and Albert Breer:
EISEN: But give me a team that might be willing to send a third day draft pick now …
BREEER: Eagles.
