As the Eagles head into what should be a busy offseason — though not quite as busy as last year’s — they’ll have to decide what to do with a few key players, including cornerback Asante Samuel. The subject of many a trade rumor during his time in Philly, Samuel faces more uncertainty surrounding his future with the team. Nevertheless, if the four-time Pro Bowler had his druthers, he’d choose to stay right where he is. When asked Friday by the Philadelphia Inquirer if he’d like to return to the Eagles in 2012, Samuel responded, “of course,” though wouldn’t divulge any further. The club hasn’t given “any clear indication” as to what may be in store for the 31-year-old corner. In other words, they’re not showing their hand — at least not yet. “I just take it day to day, see what the future holds,” Samuel said.
