Lito Sheppard Update March 1, 2008 8:30am

Lito Sheppard wants a new contract, He's not getting it. Ask Westbrook. If Brain Westbrook didn't get a new deal after leading the NFL in all purpose yards, 3rd in rushing and generally carrying the offense for the last 3 seasons Lito doesn't have a chance. the Eagles expect all players to honor their contracts. Not helping Lito Sheppards case is the fact he can't play more than 12 games a year. I like Sheldon at safety as much as anybody but when Lito is on the sideline cryin about his injuries for 4-8 games a year is Sheldon gonna go back to CB? Is the Nickel gonna become the #2 and the #4 be the nickel? The only chance Lito has of staying in Philly is if he shuts up and plays the nickel. Often injured and asking for more money look for Lito Sheppard to be traded for a wide receiver this off-season.

I love how this speculation is running rampant. I haven't heard Lito come out and say he is unhappy with his contract. There was just speculation that his agent leaked that story to the media, but we don't know for sure. I loved Shay Bro's comments last night about players not getting jealous of Asante, but that in fact, they could all play together. That being said, I would love to see Shay Bro switch to safety, but thats a very difficult transition for a player to make, but if anybody can do it....he can

I have written a previous article about the 3 CBs coexisting but Andy Reids lack of confirmation of Litos status and Reids quickness to announce Asant the Great is the Starter at Left CB sawyed me to feel this is possible.
