LB Connor Barwin says Byron Maxwell has 'been as good as suspected'

Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Connor Barwin took time from training camp to talk about his new teammate cornerback Byron Maxwell, who was the team's top free agent addition this offseason.

"Maxwell's been as good as suspected," Barwin said, via ESPN.com.

"You can tell he was on a Super Bowl team and played with a very, very good group over there... I'm automatically thrust into a leadership role just because of the position I'm in," Maxwell said.

"It's a responsibility I have. I'm aware. I've just got to make sure I'm giving them Byron Maxwell and I'm not trying to be somebody else."
