Eagles Urged to Trade for $56 Million NFL All-Pro
We don’t have to watch the Philadelphia Eagles stumble and bumble on offense for much more than a quarter to see the main difference from last year’s Super Bowl winning team.
The struggles with throwing the ball were all there one year ago — as was the drama with star wide receiver A.J. Brown. That’s nothing new.
What is new is the struggles running the ball, specifically with reigning NFL Offensive Player of Year Saquon Barkley, who is having one of the worst statistical seasons of his career in 2025 after becoming one of just 9 players in NFL history to rush for over 2,000 yards in a single season in 2024.
For the Eagles, Barkley really isn’t the problem. The problem is the play calling from his in-over-his-head first year offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo and an offensive line that isn’t as good as it was in 2024 thanks to a string of injuries.
That’s why CBS Sports NFL reporter Cody Benjamin proposed a trade that brings the Eagles some offensive line help in the former of 2-time NFL All-Pro guard Wyatt Teller from the Cleveland Browns.
“The Cleveland Browns don’t exactly scream ‘offensive line factory,’ but Teller has been a respected staple of their front for more than a half-decade, earning a trio of Pro Bowl nods along the way,” Benjamin wrote on October 15. “He’s likely available because he’s on an expiring contract with a team in perpetual transition. The Eagles already pay big bucks to Landon Dickerson at guard, but he’s banged up, and fellow interior man Tyler Steen could arguably use relief. Stabilizing, or at least deepening, the trenches could be a first step to unlocking the Saquon Barkley magic that drove the Birds in 2024.”
The Eagles are 4-2 and have lost 2 consecutive games headed into a Week 7 road game against the Minnesota Vikings.
What Getting Teller Might Cost Eagles
The financial cost of bringing Teller to Philadelphia isn’t hard to parse.
If the Eagles push the trade until the November 4 NFL trade deadline they’ll owe him roughly $7 million for the rest of the season.
If he sticks around, that number drops to approximately $4 million, combined, for the 2026 and 2027 seasons — both voidable years — on the 4-year, $56.8 million contract extension he signed with the Browns in 2021.
The more interesting bargaining chip will be what Philadelphia general manager Howie Roseman might be willing to give up from his war chest of draft picks — our best guess would be a 2026 fifth round pick or 2026 fourth round pick, at the most.
Barkley’s Concerning Drop in Production
Barkley’s numbers show a player who has been completely stifled by whatever it is the Eagles and Patullo are trying to do on offense.
Through 6 games in 2205, Barkley has 95 carries for 325 rushing yards and 3 rushing touchdowns while averaging an anemic 3.4 yards per carry. Those problems start at the line of scrimmage.
“Saquon Barkley is being contacted behind the LOS on 35.8% of his carries, 2nd most in NFL and also most in his career,” X user Denis Selzman wrote on October 14.
Through 6 games in 2024, Barkley had 108 carries for 658 rushing yards and 5 rushing touchdowns while averaging 6.4 yards per carry.
Southern Charm’s Chelsea Meissner Quietly Rescues Dozens of Abandoned Animals in Charleston, Building a Backyard Sanctuary of Love and Inspiring Fans Everywhere…
Chelsea Meissner, beloved star of Southern Charm, has always charmed audiences with her down-to-earth personality and love for the simple things in life. But in Charleston, where she calls home, Meissner has quietly written a story that goes far beyond television. Without any spotlight or publicity, she has rescued dozens of abandoned animals and transformed her backyard into a sanctuary filled with love, safety, and second chances.
The story first came to light when neighbors and local animal groups noticed a growing number of rehabilitated dogs, cats, and even chickens thriving on her property. What began as a few rescues has blossomed into a full-fledged haven, where every animal has space to roam, recover, and rediscover trust.
“I never wanted this to be about me,” Meissner said when asked about her efforts. “These animals deserve a second chance, a safe place, and someone to believe in them. Giving them that love is all that matters.”
Her words reflect the heart of her mission: restoring dignity to creatures often forgotten or left behind. Many of the animals she’s taken in were neglected, abused, or abandoned. Now, they live in a space filled with care—warm shelters, fresh food, medical attention, and, most importantly, unconditional love.
Fans of Southern Charm have been quick to voice their admiration. Social media is filled with comments praising Meissner for her compassion, with one fan writing, “Chelsea’s kindness reminds us that real beauty is in how we treat the most vulnerable.” Local animal shelters have also applauded her efforts, noting that her sanctuary has alleviated pressure on overwhelmed facilities and inspired others in Charleston to consider fostering or adopting.
But for Meissner, it isn’t about applause. Her backyard is not a curated reality TV set—it’s a living, breathing testament to the healing power of love. Each wagging tail, every gentle purr, and every animal that regains its trust in humans is, in her eyes, the only reward she needs.
This chapter of Meissner’s life highlights a side of celebrity often unseen: the quiet, personal choices that ripple outward to inspire countless others. Her sanctuary may not be marked on a map, but for the animals within it, it is the center of their world—a place where they are safe, cared for, and allowed to thrive.
In Charleston, the laughter of fans may echo through TV screens, but in Meissner’s backyard, it’s the sound of paws running on grass and the gentle clucks of happy hens that tell the truest story. A story not of fame, but of compassion, resilience, and the belief that every life—no matter how small—deserves love.
Chelsea Meissner’s sanctuary is proof that sometimes the most heartwarming stories aren’t played out on camera, but quietly, in the corners of life where kindness takes root.
