Cox was at one point the best player on the best team in the NFL, even if some didn’t exactly acknowledge it at the time.
Eagles defensive tackle Fletcher Cox talking to reporters while cleaning out his locker at the NovaCare Complex on Jan. 17.
Take it easy, we can’t lose any more interior linemen, was Reid’s message. But the more obvious solution was to bump Cox up to the first team. He would start in the next 194 games, including the playoffs, that he played over 12 memorable Hall of Fame-caliber seasons. His achievements rank up there with the franchise’s greatest: six Pro Bowls, four All-Pros , membership in the NFL’s 2010s All-Decade Team, and a Super Bowl title at the end of the 2017 season.
Nick Sirianni or Kellen Moore: Whose scheme will the Eagles offense reflect more of in ‘meshing’ two systems? But his “Playoff Fletch” nickname suggested the subtext that he didn’t strive to consistently perform at that level in the regular season. When Cox started to regress following a high-water 2018, Eagles sources worried that he wasn’t taking all the necessary measures to maximize his abilities as he grew older.
