We’re back at it again with an all new Morning Brew. The Eagles traded for some insurance at the quarterback position and acquired Gardner Minshew. Don’t be surprised if Minshew mania runs wild on you. Jake Paul fought Tyron Woodley and people of course are questioning if the fight was rigged.. Meanwhile, category 4 Hurricane Ida devastated New Orleans and South on Sunday causing flooding, power outages, downed trees and more. We have a lot to get to, so let’s not keep you waiting any longer. It’s Brew time.
Minshew Mania comes to Philly
Trade: #Eagles have acquired QB Gardner Minshew from Jacksonville in exchange for a conditional sixth-round pick in 2022.
The team also released QB Nick Mullens. pic.twitter.com/MLYrJfymxE

Good move?
Eagles just landed a 25-year old QB that has completed 62.9% with 37 TD, only 11 INT, and 93.1% rating in his first two seasons for a stinking 6th round pick. Gardner Minshew is a winning NFL quarterback. Absolute no-brainer deal for Howie Roseman.

Another review
thoughts:
the Jags were VERY DUMB to limit Trevor Lawrence’s reps in practice & games to work in time for a guy you were going to trade…for a 6th???
conditional 6th for Minshew is ridiculously low
former Jags GM? he’s now in Philly
Minshew is better than you think
thievery https://t.co/iwkKXvX6vi

Your 1 year reminder that Kyle Rittenhouse is a domestic terrorist
One year ago today, Kyle Rittenhouse, who was 17, crossed state lines to “protect” Kenosha businesses during Black Lives Matter protests. He illegally procured an AR-15, and used it to kill two protesters.
He’s a domestic terrorist; not a hero. https://t.co/RkPJFrUiCC
