Happy Friday, Eagles fans!
According to our Countdown To The Draft series, we're just 20 days away from the 2015 NFL Draft in Chicago. Excitement is building, but there was also more football news from the NovaCare Complex this week. Two new faces were signed to contracts and one familiar face announced his retirement- all of that plus another holiday on the calendar and the unveiling of the preseason opponents.
Here's a look back at how the week played out across the Eagles social sphere โฆ
