Former New York Jets QB Mark Sanchez is expected to sign with the Philadelphia Eagles later today, FOX Sports 1 NFL Insider Mike Garafolo and other media report.


Sanchez, cut last Friday when the Jets signed Michael Vick, was drafted fifth overall in 2009. He missed all of last season with a shoulder injury suffered in the Jets' third preseason game against the Giants -- paving the way for rookie Geno Smith to start every game.
He had three years remaining on his contract with the Jets, the team saved $8.3 million in salary cap space by cutting him.

Sanchez has thrown for 12,092 yards in his NFL career with 68 touchdowns and 69 interceptions, but also had a league-leading 52 turnovers during the 2011-12 seasons.

Surprised he isn't somewhere where either he can compete to start or out west.

I could only wish that the J-E-T-S would have cut him, then get into a bidding war to get him back.


That would be special.
