Mark Sanchez, Eagles interested in getting a deal done
Considered by many to be the best quarterback option on the free-agent market, the Eagles and Mark Sanchez have a strong mutual interest in reuniting next season, a person close to the situation who requested anonymity told Eliot Shorr-Parks of NJ Advance Media.
Whether a deal will be completed before the unofficial start of free agency remains to be seen. Sanchez can begin fielding calls from other teams on Saturday at noon.
After beginning the season as a backup, Sanchez was forced onto the field when starter Nick Foles injured his collarbone. He finished his nine-week stretch as the team's quarterback with 2,418 yards, 14 touchdowns and 11 interceptions while completing 64.1% of his passes.
