Nick Foles denies report that he influenced Eagles' decision to turn down trade

Nick Foles denied an NFL Network report that the Eagles turned down a trade that would have sent Foles to the Cleveland Browns after consulting with Foles first.

“The first time I’ve heard about it was when I got text messages asking if it was true, and that was the first time I had heard about it, so it never got to a discussion with me,” Foles said. “And at the end of it, I’m just a player. I don’t decide anything, if it was true or not.”

Doug Pederson and Howie Roseman said in February that the Eagles would discuss any potential move with Foles.
