Skip Bayless does not appear to be a fan of the Philadelphia Eagles’ latest move at quarterback. Philadelphia traded for Sam Howell, acquiring the quarterback from the Minnesota Vikings to serve as the backup to Jalen Hurts on Sunday.The sports analyst believes Howell is more of a liability than a reliable insurance policy for the Eagles."The Eagles are now vulnerable if their backup QB has to play," Bayless posted on X on Sunday.Philadelphia sent Minnesota a 2026 fifth-round pick and a 2027 seventh-rounder in exchange for Howell and a 2026 sixth-round pick. To replace Howell, the Vikings signed former Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz, who will back up J.J. McCarthy.Howell has already had a whirlwind start to his NFL career. He spent his first two seasons with the Washington Commanders, starting the 2023 campaign before being traded to the Seattle Seahawks in March 2024. He backed up Geno Smith before being traded to the Vikings.Philadelphia Eagles add to already loaded rosterNew England Patriots at Minnesota Vikings - Source: ImagnThe Philadelphia Eagles continue to boast what many consider the NFL's most talented roster. Hurts leads the offense, joined by Saquon Barkley in the backfield and star wideouts AJ Brown and DeVonta Smith on the perimeter. Philadelphia’s offensive line remains one of the league’s most dominant units, giving the team balance on both fronts.With that foundation, Eagles general manager Howie Roseman has added Howell as an experienced safety net. While Skip Bayless may question the move, Howell does bring value: He has proven starting experience and once carried the load for a full 17-game season. Surrounded by elite talent in Philadelphia, he may not need to do much more than manage the game if pressed into action.Still, the Eagles’ hopes for 2025 ride on Hurts remaining healthy and productive. The team is chasing back-to-back Lombardi trophies, and anything less will feel like a disappointment.For now, Eagles fans can take comfort in knowing their star quarterback is fully healthy and ready to lead. Philadelphia opens its 2025 campaign against its longtime NFC East rivals, the Dallas Cowboys, on Sept. 4.
